I was not in Buenos Aires last week, we are going to resume talks. I would like Fernando to continue for another year or two” he said on Planeta Racing.
“I don’t think Fernando wants to leave after Saturday’s match. I can’t imagine him making a decision overnight.. His position is not up for debate. The name dance of possible technicians is an invention, None of this is true and they are lies that are hurting the club.he concluded.
