Ex-Boca captain considers early retirement after tough blow | OneFootball

While at Boca there is a great atmosphere due to the team’s ever-improving football performance, a former player from the club is going through a difficult time in his career. The player, who came up through the youth ranks, is considering retirement after a very tough blow.

We’re talking about Guillermo “Pol” Fernández, who was captain and a key figure for the Xeneize squad for several years. The native of Granadero Baigorria suffered through the relegation of Godoy Cruz to the second division of Argentine football and decided to terminate his contract with the club.

This blow is not the first for Pol, who previously played for Fortaleza in Brazil but couldn’t stay there for long. His stint was short: he played only 25 matches after leaving Boca Juniors. The relegation was decisive for Pol Fernández’s decision to terminate his contract with Godoy Cruz. At Tomba, he wore the captain’s armband, but in this second spell he was unable to be the decisive player he had been during his first period from 2015 to 2017.

Pol Fernández was relegated and terminated his contract with Godoy Cruz.

Thus, the player ended his relationship with the Bodeguero team after playing 13 matches in the Torneo Clausura and 2 in the Copa Sudamericana. Following this decision, speculation began in Mendoza about the possibility of his retirement.

Currently, Pol Fernández is 34 years old and, according to local media, the player could end his career after this stint with Tomba, where things did not go well for him, just as in his last spell at Boca and his brief time at Fortaleza.

While Boca focuses on the championship

Pol Fernández is now part of Boca’s past, as the club currently enjoys a great footballing present and aspires to win the championship. With qualification for the next Copa Libertadores secured, the team has a single objective: to win the Torneo Clausura.

Boca, one of the favorites to win the championship.

To clinch the title, they must continue on the same footballing path and maintain the levels achieved recently, both individually and collectively. Today, their captain Leandro Paredes inspires a winning spirit, and his teammates follow him with the same goal in mind.

To win the title, they must first get past Talleres de Córdoba, their opponent in the round of 16. The match against the team coached by Carlos Tevez will be played on Sunday, November 23, starting at 8:00 PM at La Bombonera.
