Boca squad deeply concerned over Russo’s health | OneFootball

At Boca, all thoughts are on Miguel Ángel Russo. Although the team and coaching staff have resumed training at the Ezeiza complex with their usual professionalism, the truth is that the atmosphere and the downcast mood clearly show that everyone's mind is focused on the health of the coach, who is currently undergoing home hospitalization with a reserved prognosis.

There is no spirit for anything in Ezeiza. The delegation, which started Tuesday morning in the gym and then did field work on one of the auxiliary fields, is visibly affected by the complex moment that the 69-year-old coach is going through.

Despite the fact that behind closed doors they are constantly aware of his progress, the medical report that Boca released this Monday about Russo's health was a jolt for a team that has united more than ever under his guidance, precisely.

And indeed, the team leaders, with Leandro Paredes at the helm, tried to arrange a visit to their coach to support him in his fight against his illness. However, the meeting could not be arranged for various medical reasons, but until a few days ago there was constant communication between the parties by phone.

Russo's delicate situation hits the entire Boca world hard and inevitably affects the general mood for day-to-day life. However, behind closed doors, they know that their coach wants more than anyone for them to "keep working", that motto that he carried as a banner and instilled since he returned to the club - and throughout his entire career -.

And so it happened this morning and will continue in the same vein throughout the week, regardless of the emotional downturn and logical concern, because it is the message of the leader and he has earned that absolute respect from both his own and others.
