The promotion of the game did not have him on the billboard, but he reappeared as a football commentator. Fernando Niembro returned to TV and he was together with Jorge Barril in the transmission that ESPN made the visit of Independiente to Bahia, Brazil.
Although he had been present as a guest in some editions of ESPN FC, program that aired until last week on Monday nights on the aforementioned sports channel, since 2015 that did not comment on a match (its place in the Copa Libertadores matches was taken by Diego Latorre). By then, he had to resign the Pro’s candidacy after a money laundering complaint against him.
With the leadership of Germán Paoloski in the Sportscenter strip, the sports signal presented the transmission of the match for the third date of the group round of the South American Cup that Rojo played in Brazil against Bahia. And who was there was Fernando Niembro, who shared the transmission together with the rapporteur Jorge Barril, despite the fact that Diego “Chavo” Fucks was on the original programming.
The latest from Niembro: his traumatic departure from radio Rivadavia
At the start of 2020, Radio Rivadavia announced the return of one of its historic programs: “La Oral Deportiva” was back on the air and with a new host. It was Fernando Niembro, who arrived with his entire team from AM 990. Niembro was at the forefront of a group also made up of Sergio Danishewsky and Claudio Federovsky, his side tables, among others. Since February, the radio program has been running in two shifts: from 12 to 14 and from 19 to 21.
However, everything turned around for the man who became a candidate for national deputy for the Pro in 2015: the radio ruled out his presence in April. According to his own message, for “political reasons”, as he hinted in his monologue at the beginning of his last broadcast. From the station, they had a look that coincided in some aspects (that the noon program was being lifted), but not in others: they ruled out censorship for political reasons, they affirmed that the decision was due to “artistic reasons”, they pointed to the continuity of the evening strip and added that they even offered him the position of Sports Director of Radio Rivadavia.
