Joaquín Levinton says Leandro Paredes 'humiliated' him at party | OneFootball

Joaquín Levinton has recounted how Leandro Paredes humbled him at a party, a tale he shared while judging reality programme Es mi sueño. According to LaNumer12.com.ar, the Turf frontman said the Boca midfielder’s presence alone punctured his swagger.

He arrived at an exclusive event feeling immaculate and certain he owned the room. Stylishly dressed and brimful of confidence, he admitted his vanity set him up for a fall.

That changed when Paredes, a Qatar 2022 champion, walked in wearing an immaculate Armani suit and instantly drew every eye. Levinton then caught his reflection and likened himself to a cockroach, sparking laughter in the studio.

In the wake of Boca’s Torneo Apertura exit, coverage around Paredes has included false claims, including a suggestion on América TV of a switch to Inter Miami, and talk of a row with president Juan Román Riquelme.

Paredes knows such media operations are common at a club as big as Boca, yet he is irritated by what has been aired. He remains focused on Tuesday’s Cruzeiro tie, which he views as a final, and wants Boca in the Libertadores last 16.
