The current goalkeeper “Xeneize” will not continue at the club, aimed after the elimination in the Club World Cup. It would be replaced by the “Cyclone” lifeguard.
After the shameful elimination of Club World Cup With a 1-1 draw with Auckland Citythe coaching staff headed by the experienced technical director Miguel Ángel Russo He lowered his thumb to the goalkeeper Agustín Marchesín.
The veteran goalkeeper, who had reached the club with the promise of providing hierarchy and security in a historically sensitive position, was under crossfire after a dazzled, erratic action and, for many fans, directly decisive in the international debacle of the riverbank set.
The former Guardame of Lanús, who even requested the change in the defining duel against Alianza Lima, joins a group of players who already had a foot outside: Frank Fabra, Red frames, Marcelo Saracchi and Sergio Romero. If the exit of both archers (Marchesín and Romero), the “Xeneize” arch would be completely vacant.
Before the imminent departure of its two main archers, The Boca arch would be temporarily in the hands of Leandro Brey. The 22 -year -old is one of the great bets of the club, but so far he has not had the necessary continuity to affirm himself as a solid option. His few appearances in the first team left talent flashes, but also reflected the lack of experience needed to defend the three sticks of a giant such as the “Xeneize”.
Russo knows him well and values his potential, but he also knows that he cannot carry all the weight of responsibility to an archer without filming at an institutional and sports moment so delicate. Therefore, he has approached the leadership a name that could calm the waters in Brandsen 805.
Russo’s chosen one, another from San Lorenzo
The chosen one is none other than Orlando Gillcurrent goalkeeper of San Lorenzo de Almagro. With just 25 years, Gill consolidated himself as one of the most regular figures of Argentine football in the last two seasons. His reflexes and aerial security kept the “cyclone” alive at more than one occasion.
Gill, of great performances and considered key in the scheme of the Boedo Club, appears as the main objective to reinforce a position that was under the magnifying glass after international failure. His possible arrival would open a new chapter in the reconstruction of the team for 2026.
