"Club Atlético Boca Juniors announces with profound sadness the passing of Miguel Ángel Russo", it is stated in a statement published in the night from Wednesday to Thursday.
The coach, at the age of 69, faced a relentless condition: bladder and prostate cancer. The illness had set in since 2017. The last match of the Boca Juniors team that Russo attended took place on September 21. Since then, his assistant, Claudio Ubeda, has replaced him.
