Manager hunt: Riquelme's top candidate emerges
Riquelme has identified his preferred candidate to replace Claudio Úbeda, and it's a former champion who won titles both as a player and as a coach (6). Three names are now leading the race, with the multi-title winner at the front of the pack (1).
The other names in the frame
Rodolfo Arruabarrena has been positioned as a serious contender by influential voices close to the club. The former Boca player and manager knows the institution inside out (2). Meanwhile, Riquelme is also keeping close tabs on Sebastián Beccacece, with Argentine media confirming the interest is genuine and ongoing (3).
Battaglia declares for 2027 elections
Sebastián Battaglia is coming for Riquelme's job, off the pitch. The former player and manager confirmed he will run in the next presidential elections, delivering a blunt message: "I don't want to see Boca the way it is right now" (4). The campaign rhetoric is already heating up.
Panichelli opens up on injury and Boca links
Joaquín Panichelli has spoken about the injury that cost him a World Cup spot and explained the circumstances that made a move to Boca impossible (5). A candid interview that clears up lingering questions about his situation.
