When politics interferes on Argentinian lawns… The recently elected far-right Argentine president, Javier Milei, took aim at the English club Chelsea and its desire to harm Argentine football in an interview with Radio Miter relayed by the sports daily AS. “There is a desire expressed [de la part de Chelsea] to buy Boca, Racing, Estudiantes, Newell’s or Lanús.
