Latorre talks about that connection of the Colombian footballer with the Argentinian, a historical relationship Say Stefano.
Today’s players are steeped in that influence, as well as the memories of that generation that led the game. Pibe Valderrama and whose genetics were very Argentinian, so it is not surprising that they feel comfortable choosing our football to grow in their careers, helped by the fact that the Colombian market is still relatively economically accessible to Argentinian clubs, ”he wrote.
He points out that Argentine football needs to rethink the way it explores its new talents, while only those who stand out, those with talent, are Colombians.
“In this class of footballers, and also for attackers such as Villa, Borré, in his time Falcao whether it be Londoño, another Colombian boy who last Thursday defined the Reserve super classic with his goal, believe it or not, with no middle ground. They all come to the First Division with subjects to perform in their performances, but the only way to get them is with the absolute confidence of the coach, and that doesn’t always happen, ”Latorre emphasizes.
Finally, he says Argentine clubs are fascinated by the natural talent of Colombians, who can unlock games for them. But he wonders why the main role no longer belongs to the Argentines themselves.
