Daniele De Rossi arrived to play for Boca and that’s her only goal. In talks with Nicolas Burdisso, he made it clear that he doesn’t want to do anything else off the field or exploit his image. That’s why his interviews took time, but finally it was time to listen to the Italian with an almost perfect Spaniard.” This is an important decision, not only for me, but also for my family. I miss my son and my wife, who will be here in two weeks. This changed my life. I’m not going to be 10 years old because I’m already in the end. I had to do it before I finished my career because it was a challenge and it was something I wanted,” began the former Rome, his speech.

In one of his first reflections he analyzed the atmosphere in Argentina with the swelled, reactions and encouragement. “It’s a very hot life, it’s a bit like what was happening in Rome,” he said, and also argued that that fervor moves within the playing field.” The squad is very good, we have a lot of quality and the attitude that this club has, it is not seen in many large teams. There’s a lot of quality here, I didn’t think the campus had that. In Argentina he goes from defending to attacking. In Italy there is some time to think and breathe, something that does not happen here,” said TyC Sports.More de De Rossi
His talk with Maradona: “I was sitting in an armchair with the greatest of all and treated me like we were lifelong friends, and it’s something I’ll be left with forever.” Living in Argentina: “The first problem is that they think it’s dangerous, because news is coming out. How I was going to get the campus and the fans, I was sure it was going to be good, but with security I feel at home.” Playing with River in semis de Libertadores: “It would be an unforgettable match as it was last year’s final. It’s a very hot match that is followed all over the world, because when you play a Boca-River it’s also for Europe.”

A “Tano” not so Tano: “I am Roman, they should tell me ‘hand'”, said De Rossi, who explained that in general this is what the Neapolitans are called, but that it was adopted for any Italian. Still, he said he didn’t mind and said that in Rome he was known as “Lele” for the completion of Daniele.Riquelme: “I know what it means in Argentina and in Boca above all. I’m smart to learn and listen to everything, but about Riquelme I don’t have to learn anything from anyone. Because I know everything about him, I know all about these kinds of players. I used to talk about Iniesta, from Xavi, they are the players That I looked at always excited, because they are the ones that leave you in love. I’m a different player, more physical, with less quality but I always liked playing against them.”
