After passing through Karpaty Lviv, of the Ukrainian League, Leonardo Ponzio's new team”>Jorge Carrascal was presented on January 30, 2019 as a new River Plate player. Since then he has signed several seasons full of ups and downs, shining in some, but being the target of criticism in others.

Faced with this, Leonardo Ponzio, who is one of the “millionaire’s” great idols and who announced that he will not continue in the “cross band” for 2022, spoke, in an interview with the program ‘F90’, from ‘ESPN’, about his relationship with the Colombian, telling several anecdotes.

“I got very close to Jorge because I know the family and because I saw that it is what you have to get close to and better kick him in training and not screw him in a locker room,” he began in his speech, which sparked some laughter among the people that is here.

But it wasn’t the only thing. “I saw that he is one of the different ones and he needs that confidence to give what he has inside, which is a lot. I was above him, in a good environment, and also, he respected me a lot,” said the then captain of River Plate .

For the moment, attention should be paid to the future of Jorge Carrascal, who, with the arrival of his compatriot Juan Fernando Quintero, could lose a bit of prominence. In fact, he will no longer wear the number ’10’, as he had been doing in recent seasons.
