While Boca prepares to play in the round of 16 of the Torneo Clausura, a statement caught everyone's attention. Ángel Di María confessed that he has the desire to join the Xeneize team, but not now—rather, in the future alongside Leandro Paredes.
Some time ago, Paredes revealed that his goal is to become a coach once he hangs up his boots. But he doesn't want to do it alone; he wants to form a coaching duo with his friend Di María.
Now, it was Fideo who spoke about the goal they share, once they retire from professional football. “It's true, we're going to try it when the time comes,” began the Canalla player.

Leo and Fideo faced each other in the Torneo Clausura.
In the same vein, he added: “I'm much older than him, he'll still have time, but in the meantime, while he decides when to retire, I can already start looking at things and everything. I'm taking the course.” He then explained how their teams will play, something he already has clear: “4-3-3, as always. 4-3-3 till the end, and Lea told me the same thing, so there's no problem,” he confessed in statements to ESPN.
Finally, he gave a detail that did not go unnoticed, which is where they would like to coach due to their ties with Boca and Central: “That's already been discussed, there's no issue. That's it, we'll be at each club once. If it happens, if we're hired, but the idea is... That's already been talked about, once at Central, once at Boca, that's already been discussed,” he concluded.
Because Boca and Rosario Central finished first in their respective groups, the only way they could meet again in the Torneo Clausura is in a final. For that to happen, both teams must advance through their respective playoff brackets.

Boca and Central can only face each other again in the final.
The Xeneize have to face Talleres de Córdoba in the round of 16, and if they advance, they will have to play against Vélez or Argentinos Juniors. If they keep advancing, Lanús, Tigre, Racing, and River are potential opponents.
As for Rosario Central, they must first face Estudiantes de La Plata. If they continue in the competition, they will play the winner of Central Córdoba and San Lorenzo. Unión, Gimnasia, Riestra, and Barracas Central are on the horizon if they keep advancing.
