River Plate board reactivated professional drummers a couple of days ago to put an end to a relatively mild atmosphere in the stands of the legendary Monumental Stadium. They did their job just fine in the Lanus game on Saturday night, with River securing a 2-1 win, but it seems they should have stayed there for Monday’s announcement.BIENVENIDO A RIVER PISTOLERO. HAY BALAS PARA TODOS! Luis Suarez es nuevo jugador del Glorioso River Plate 🐓💪🏻🇺🇾 pic.twitter.com/mZwuLl2N1h— Christian Martin (@askomartin) June 26, 2022 As things stand, by the end of the day, River Plate will announce the signing of none other than Luis Suarez. The 35-year-old striker is a free agent, and his desire to engage in the Italian Serie A has reached the dead-end due to legal issues. That’s why he turned to some other options on the market, and the Argentine powerhouse seems just like the proper destination for the Uruguyan veteran.TUE: 02.00: (2.75) ATLETICO TUCUMAN (3.10) GODOY CRUZ (2.75)River have become a real option, so much so that the signing of the striker could be made official this very Monday. According to Bruno Vain, ‘Direct TV’ journalist, the information about Suarez’s signing came to him from “the best possible source”. Me llega de la mejor fuente posible. Es una realidad.
