He explained how much he cares about being part of the national team: “We work all year for a few games. When you can’t go, it’s tough.”

It’s something I think about, but I don’t know if it will happen.” On the topic of Boca Juniors, he shared: “My dad was a Boca fan. When Boca played in Córdoba, we went to the stadium. I know Boca fans have a lot of love for me. I see the messages and the old photos online.”
Off the field, he shared personal news. “I would love to be a dad. We’re trying,” he said, speaking about his relationship with Oriana Sabatini.
