Former River Plate president Jorge Brito spoke about his work at the club. He recalled that when he and Rodolfo D'Onofrio took over, the club was on the verge of bankruptcy. After being relegated to the Nacional B in 2011, the team had to rebuild, and the change in management led to years of glory, when the 'Millionaire' started winning Copa Libertadores again. Brito also commented on speculation about the club's political affiliation: 'River is Peronist, radical, libertarian... but when we are here, we always talk only about River.' He spoke about his plan to reform the Monumental stadium, which helped increase the club's membership from 100,000 to 350,000. Brito praised the management of Claudio Tapia and expressed pride in the stadium being provided to the Argentina national team, which won its second World Cup. When asked about the club's current situation, he said: 'We know we are in a clearly bad moment. We, River people, see the same thing and know what needs to be corrected.' He also expressed confidence in the newly elected president, Stefano Di Carlo. Di Carlo, in turn, noted the unity in the club: 'We are all very united. This unity of players, directors, and technical staff will help us move forward and get back on track.' He emphasized that the process started under D'Onofrio will continue. At the age of 36, Di Carlo won a decisive victory in the elections, garnering 61.77% of the vote. He also added that the club does not need foreign investors or sheikhs to succeed.
