Gerardo Boca Arias, representative of soccer players, was a guest on the program Offside from Radio Carve Deportiva together with his nephew, former soccer player Maximiliano Arias, and spoke about the current moment of agents, coaches and soccer players who can reach the big teams.

“They don’t ask me for anything,” he told about his clients, and added: “With my age and the experience I have, I know when they lack something or not. I don’t want to dizzy them. How many reps are there who buy $40,000 cars or $200,000 apartments from you?”

“You have to go slowly. What the representatives are doing is an atrocity. There are more representatives than soccer players, the shit they are doing is impressive. They are doing a lot of evil, ”he continued.

Without mincing words

“The worst mistake that Maxi Arias had was meeting Mario Saralegui, Ruben Paz and Carlos Bueno because they made him an alcoholic. They ruined it. He drank more with them than when he was in the Unión or Basáñez canteen. Maxi’s father is an angel, do you know how they raised him? ”, He pointed out the moment he debuted in the first for Peñarol.

Then, speaking of the training, he assured that “Ruglio slept with Marcelo Broli because he did not mention (Bruno) Betancor.” “If that kid was in the U-20 World Cup, today Peñarol had a historic sale to make,” he added.

Jorge Fosatti “is a scoundrel,” he said, to which Maxi Arias explained: “We got him the offer to go to University and after six months he left alone without getting into the business.” “You have to respect, what does it cost to pick up a phone?” said Boca.

“I did not solve my issue with Ramón Arias, he is another scoundrel. He kept money from friends. I have no relationship with him”, he said about the defender, who in 2022 left Peñarol and went to Giresunspor in Turkey.

Later, regarding the arrival of Marcelo Bielsa to the Uruguayan team, he highlighted: “I have no contact with Nacho Alonso, but it must be recognized that his management is remarkable. It is a play, it is masterful”.

Coaches and players

“Yesterday I spoke with Álvaro Gutiérrez. How they kill him! There are leaders within Nacional who have a structure set up and do not realize that the man has 76% of the points won, they cannot say anything, ”he said.

He commented that “any boy comes here and directs first. We don’t put the people we have to put. In Argentina they direct the phenomena, Diego Forlán is not here, the Chino (Álvaro) Recoba, and they put a boy who did not even play anything. We lost the identity. Rúben Sosa or Hugo De León, why aren’t they in Uruguayan football? You have to put those who played at a high level”.

Lastly, he spoke about three of his represented players: “Emanuel Gularte is making good money in Mexico. Bringing him to Peñarol or Nacional is a step backwards”. Gabriel Neves “played yesterday and broke it”, so he “is not going to return to Nacional”. “Alan Medina has a contract until December with Liverpool. No one called us for him, ”he closed.
