This morning De Rossi did the last training with the Boca shirt and at 19.30 (Italian time) the press conference of the new president of Boca is scheduled to announce the farewell of De Rossi. Just the arrival of the new management would be at the origin of the DDR decision.

After the presidential elections that had brought Jorge Ameal to the Boca Juniors summit, in fact, there was immediate talk of possible problems for the former Giallorossi. The new president, in fact, immediately clarified: "We don't know what De Rossi will do, if he stays, if he will continue to play. We have to see many things. Someone brought him and made him come to this club, and now we don't know if he he'll feel comfortable with us too. And we'll revise the contract anyway. " His contract, in fact, would have expired on June 30th. With his retirement, only Gianluigi Buffon remains among the active world champions in Berlin.
