The situation of Marcos Rojo, Marcelo Saracchi, and Cristian Lema at Boca has reached a breaking point. The three footballers were separated from the professional squad by decision of Miguel Ángel Russo without even access to the locker room with the rest of their teammates.
The measure taken by the coaching staff of the Xeneize, with the support of the Football Council, came after the clash of the defender from La Plata with Russo after the defeat against Huracán in the Clausura Tournament. This Tuesday, along with the Uruguayan footballer and the former Newell's, they tried to be part of the technical talk, but only those players who were called up for that match were allowed entry.
This caused a bad reaction from the former captain of Xeneize who left Ezeiza without finishing the training. The next day, he was informed that he was not allowed to enter the locker room and had to train separately from the rest of his teammates under the supervision of a lower division physical trainer.
In this way, none of the three players will be considered by Miguel Ángel Russo during his stay in charge of Xeneize. For their part, the management seeks to give them an exit before their contract ends, while the players are running out of options.
Rojo is close to ending his cycle at Xeneize.
