“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Independiente Rivadavia, and it is not being withdrawn.

Independiente Rivadavia promote Bichi from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Bichi has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
