Al-Nasr was left without a goalkeeper due to an injury to David Ospina, but Cristiano Ronaldo’s club solved the problem in no time. Boca Juniors player Agustin Rossi got a call, he got off the plane, got into another and is ready to play with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 27-year-old Argentine is set to move to Flamengo Vitor Pereira in July, so he will only play in Saudi Arabia for the next 5 months on loan from Boca.
But what surprised me the most was how it all turned out. Last Friday, Boca lost the Super Cup to Racing in the United Arab Emirates, and upon their return to Argentina, the team made a two-hour stop in Madrid.
Then a businessman called the Argentine goalkeeper and said that Al-Nasr was in charge of everything. He said goodbye to his companions, took his things and left the plane. Shortly thereafter, he again traveled to Saudi Arabia to perform at his new club.
Al-Nasr will pay Boca Juniors one million dollars (about 920 thousand euros) for 5 months of rent.
