The Rosario team is preparing for a trip full of emotions.

Newell's Old Boys, in which Éver Banega and the Uruguayan Juan Ignacio 'Colo' Ramírez stand out at the beginning of the season, travel in the early hours of this Wednesday to the United States, where they will play a friendly against Lionel Messi and Luis's Inter Miami Suarez.

At the head of the Rosario team, and after taking over from a 'leprous' glory like the former albiceleste international Gabriel Heinze, the Uruguayan Mauricio Larriera is having a great start to the season, in which, except for last night's stumble, he accumulated four wins in other so many games, which allows him to lead Zone B of the local tournament. Aware of the harshness of the Argentine calendar, he asked the club "to travel as many footballers as possible" to the United States in order to "distribute the burden" of time and effort.

"It is a match where we face people with a lot of weight, not only at a global level, but in the history of the club," he told the press, alluding to Messi and also to the host coach, Gerardo 'Tata' Martino, who, like footballer, he played in the 'leper' ranks on three occasions. Newell's team will travel to Miami early next morning, where this Thursday they will face Inter at the DRV PNK Stadium in Fort Lauderdale (Florida, United States).

Before, there will be a meeting with the red-and-black fans, who will raise a 'flag' in the middle of Miami beach, in North Beach, followed by a press conference between the Uruguayan coach and Éver Banega, a former footballer for Valencia, Atlético de Madrid and Sevilla who is leading the great moment of form of the Rosario team.

The 'leprous' presence in Miami will be completed with a training session the day before the game and two talks by two Rosario figures: 'Tata' Martino himself and Maxi Rodríguez, who, after his long European journey (Espanyol, Atlético de Madrid and Liverpool) and his time in Uruguayan football (Peñarol), he retired at the Rosario club, where he had started his professional career.
