This Wednesday, the seven working days of the deadline given by the statute for the replacement of authorities after the elections of Sunday, December 17, and where the Juan Román Riquelme-Jorge Ameal formula far surpassed that formed by Andrés Ibarra-Mauricio Macri, expired.
The first meeting of the board of directors that will have the presence of the new president will be on January 3, where the new positions of the different departments of the club will be made official.
Due to the victory of the official list in the elections, there will not be a high turnover of names in positions. Only half of the 28 members will change between starters and substitutes. Furthermore, the majority of modifications would be in the positions that each incoming authority would take.
Although there is no official confirmation, one of the vice-presidencies would be granted to Silvia Gottero, wife of Roberto Digón, the historic leader who died in 2022 while serving as third vice-presidency of the previous leadership.
On the other hand, some of the names who would maintain their position are Ricardo Rosica – Román’s right-hand man – in the general secretary, Emiliano Algieri as pro-secretary, Carlos Montero in treasury, Orlando Giménez in legal, Adriana Bravo in Inclusion and Alejandro Desimone in basketball . The renewal would lie in sectors such as the partners department where Alejandro Veiga would replace Alejandro Cosentino, life contracts where Alejandro González, Jorge Ameal’s most trusted man, could go. Likewise, some positions are kept secret and it is still unknown who will occupy them.
The Football Council will continue to be in full contact with Riquelme despite his role as president. Thus, The management of the activity will continue to be linked to Mauricio Serna, Raúl Cascini and Jorge Bermúdez.
Román’s idea is to continue in his offices at the Ezeiza Premises and sometimes, when necessary, go to his office at Brandsen 805, where surely the role of his friend Ricardo Rosica will be essential to work in the administrative part.
Precisely one of the first measures that the new Board of Directors would promote, with the support of Román, would be to rename the Boca Predio de Ezeiza to «Carlos Bianchi Estate» .
They believe that the Viceroy’s name should take on the notoriety it deserves in the club. What’s more, they are thinking about paying tribute to him in the first home game for the second round of Group B of the League Cup, on Wednesday, January 3 against Sarmiento, from Junín.
In addition, Télam was able to find out from relatives of both parties that there were rapprochements and a formal proposal to Carlos Bianchi to come and collaborate with the Football Council, where he thinks he can help the most, without schedules and at the times he thinks necessary.

The “Virrey”, the winningest technical director in the history of “xeneize” and Argentine football, continues to think with those closest to him about what decision to make.
The two big objectives that Riquelme has in his first four years in office are to try to win the seventh Copa Libertadores (this year he did not qualify and will play in the Sudamericana) and the remodeling of the Bombonera.
The first of them was the arrival of Diego Martínez as coach. And as Román wanted from the beginning, the idea was to officially announce it once he won the elections.
A few hours after the transfer of command, the official account “Esto es Boca”, which is responsible for announcing the club’s sporting movements, confirmed the arrival of the brand new coach. «Boca Juniors and Diego Martínez reached an agreement. The club and the coach are working on the formalization of the contract,” was the official statement issued by the “xeneize” entity on its X social network account.
