Overview
- In a new interview, the Strasbourg player said he has no relationship with the Boca president and sees no point in engaging with his remarks.
- He recounted calling Boca’s Consejo de Fútbol in the final days before departing and said no one answered.
- He added that his preference had been to remain at the club for six to twelve more months, a plan he says fell through.
- Barco left by triggering his release clause for a move to Brighton in 2023 and later established himself in Ligue 1 with Racing de Estrasburgo.
- He thanked Boca supporters, signaled openness to a future return, and his stance follows Riquelme’s 2024 criticism that the decision was the player’s responsibility.
