Boca's Miguel Ángel Russo Discharged After Dehydration Detected in Checkup

He returned home under team medical follow-up, with further tests to confirm lab values before a decision on his return to training.

Overview

  • The 69-year-old coach went in for scheduled studies on Monday after the 2-2 draw with Central Córdoba, where doctors noted weakness and treated him with IV fluids.
  • Boca confirmed the hospitalization for evaluation, and later reports said he was released the same day to continue recovery at home.
  • Some outlets reported elevated bilirubin among lab results, which will be rechecked as part of ongoing monitoring by Boca's medical staff.
  • His attendance at Tuesday's training will be determined after follow-up assessments by the club doctor.
  • This comes weeks after a separate stay at Instituto Fleni for a urinary infection, a recent episode considered alongside his longstanding oncology history.
