Boca Juniors has a delicate situation to be resolved in the coming days. One of the main jewels of the Argentine club, Agustín Almendra was involved in an argument with coach Sebastián Battaglia in training this Monday. The information is from Tyc Sports.
After being placed in the reserve team during training, the midfielder, who was already on Barcelona’s radar, got angry with the captain, who promptly told him: “If you don’t like it, leave”.
Shortly after the event, the 22-year-old retired from the field and left the training center. Annoyed, the technical commission chose not to list the athlete for the match against Central de Córdoba, for the Argentine Cup, which takes place this Wednesday.
According to the newspaper, this is not the first time that Almendra has problems with the Xeneize coach. On another occasion, the midfielder questioned the position in which he was being cast and, as punishment, was removed from the first game of the pre-season, against Colo-Colo.
The newspaper points out that the coaching staff no longer has the player for the remainder of the season, and Boca’s board is already working on the possibility of removing him or even selling him to another club. Brazilian and North American football emerge as favorites to count on Almendra, given that the windows of other countries are already closed.
Later, another team revelation, Alan Varela, was cut from the match against Córdoba for an act of indiscipline. However, unlike the teammate, the midfielder will be absent from the duel, but should be reinstated in the team in the coming days.
