Already with his mind set on Brazilian football, Rossi gave an interview on the YouTube channel EZZEQUIEL where he talked about everything and without a filter. From how his relationship with Riquelme was in Boca, the privilege of having shared a squad with Cristiano Ronaldo and what was the most complicated stadium in which he had to play.
His relationship with Juan Román Riquelme
“Well, the truth is that well. He has his role as vice president, I had it as a player, and always in the best way. Each one did his job, without any rancor in anything. Simply that”.
What was it like playing in Saudi Arabia?
“The language is particular. Life outside the club (Al-Nassr), more than anything for my family, became complicated. Because of their culture, their way of seeing things, going out into the street and seeing the man in white and the woman all covered up. It is another culture. Luckily it was a short time and we didn’t suffer it so much”.
Cristiano Ronaldo as a teammate and the gift he gave him
“Cristiano Ronaldo is super humble, always telling anecdotes, explaining things about his life, about his business. In the day to day super professional, everything super good. That’s why he is who he is and he remains so current that he impresses. I have a shirt that he wore in a game and I made him sign it ”.

What it was like to share a squad with Pity Martínez in Saudi Arabia and the 2018 Boca-River final
“At first we were the Argentines, everything was fine, then he got injured and maybe we didn’t share much. But from time to time we talked about goals, saves, whatever. I couldn’t carry a lot…”. “Because of the goals and determination, the striker who most complicated me in my career was Pity Martínez”. “Relegation is worse than losing a final, they are totally different things”.
The most beautiful stadium in which he played and the most complicated
“The most beautiful stadium I played in was La Bombonera. It’s incredible.” “The most complicated…difficult. It could be the Bombonera, but I never had to play against. Complicated, but due to the size and the people it could be the Monumental”.

Agustín Rossi spoke about his departure from Boca
Rossi referred to his controversial departure from Boca, where he was a key player until his departure at the start of the season. “I left hurt. I would have liked to say goodbye on the field, ”said Rossi in dialogue with Radio La Red.
When asked about a possible return to Xeneize, where he cut short between 2017 and 2022, he stated: “You don’t close the doors to go anywhere, I would have liked to have a different farewell from Boca to the fan.”
