Next Sunday at 5:30 PM, Boca will visit Rosario Central in a special match for Di María and Paredes, but also for Miguel Ángel Russo, as he will return to the Gigante de Arroyito and a club where he is idolized.

However, Russo's presence is not guaranteed as he is still recovering after being hospitalized. In this regard, according to Doble Amarilla, doctors have recommended that “Miguelo” not travel to Rosario and instead continue his recovery at home, a suggestion the coach does not want to follow, as he is motivated to return to the Gigante.

At Boca, they are not opposed to the 69-year-old coach’s decision, and even the coaching staff assured Doble Amarilla that the idea is for him to be there, as long as his health allows it.

Given this scenario, a joint decision between Russo, the doctors, and Boca will be made between Friday and Saturday, the day when the “Xeneize” will set off for Rosario.

Boca prepares the return of two midfielders

Looking ahead to Sunday’s match against Rosario Central, the only confirmed change is Leandro Brey for Agustín Marchesín, who suffered a muscle tear at the end of the match against Aldosivi.

Meanwhile, those with a real chance of returning are Tomás Belmonte and Ander Herrera. The Spaniard hasn’t played since June 17, when he aggravated a muscle injury, and has been inactive for over two months. The former Lanús player, on the other hand, was injured on July 27 against Huracán and only now seems ready after a prolonged recovery period.
