Navarro Montoya backs Marchesín and calls for Boca to add former forward | OneFootball

Former Boca Juniors goalkeeper Navarro Montoya has backed Agustín Marchesín after recent criticism, emphasising his importance to the defence. According to Sitiboca.com.ar, he highlighted the need for a dependable presence in goal.

In a recent interview, Montoya assessed Marchesín's displays, saying external criticism does not always reflect reality. He added that keeping faith in the role is crucial, since pressure can affect a goalkeeper's form.

Montoya also suggested bringing in a forward who has previously played for Boca to strengthen the attack. He named no targets, arguing such experience could add variety and improve effectiveness.

He said a striker familiar with the club could lift performances and the mood in the stands. Players who understand the shirt, he noted, can provide something extra in key moments.

The former keeper urged the board to evaluate that option in the transfer market. He believes now is a good moment to seek a reference in attack who could add goals.

His support for Marchesín carries weight given scrutiny on the team. Montoya's status as a club icon gives his comments added resonance.
