Marcelo Gallardo: Who is Alina Moine, the journalist who would have a relationship with River’s coach?

The name of Marcelo Gallardo is inscribed in the glorious pages of the history of the River Plate and, therefore, also in Argentine football in general. The ‘Muñeco’ won absolutely everything with the club he loves and his legend – already with 14 titles shining in the showcase – continues to extend to the present day. Today, his main source of inspiration would also come from the sports environment, although not from the field itself. In Argentina they assure, again, that the coach of the ‘Millionaire’ has a sentimental relationship with the ESPN journalist, Alina Moine.

After a series of rumors and speculations that come from 2019, the relationship between Gallardo and Moine has already been confirmed, although not by themselves, but by their close surroundings. In the Argentine program “Partners of the Spectacle” of ‘El Trece’, the panelist Luli Fernández – Alina’s friend – was in charge of confirming the open secret.

“When I asked (Alina Moine) if she was dating, she stopped answering me. There I went to another source, a close friend of Marcelo, who told me, verbatim: ‘They are dating and love each other deeply’”was the revelation made by the host of the program.

In this way, before the match against Defense and Justice last Saturday, Gallardo’s name has once again revolutionized social networks, but not because of a sporting issue.

The one who did give statements to the press was Geraldine La Rosa, still the wife of “Muñeco”. According to the version of the journalist Karina Iavícoli, based on Geraldine’s words, the Argentine coach’s relationship with the mother of his four children is maintained. They have not separated nor are they contemplating divorce.

“He told me that they have wanted to destroy Gallardo for years, that they cannot bear to see him as number one and that it is a systematic plan against him. They want to get him out of where he is, said Geraldine, and assured that she is still with him. ‘We’re still together,’ she told me”narrated the journalist.

The controversy has spread and only Marcelo Gallardo knows the truth of everything. The truth is that the ‘Muñeco’, for now, has preferred to stay out of this situation and not say a word on the subject. He remains focused on continuing to make history with River Plate and will not rest.

Who is Alina Moine?

Born in the land of Lionel Messi -Rosario, Santa Fe- Alina Moine was introduced to the world of sports journalism at a very young age. In fact, in an interview with La Nación, held in February of this year, she said that she studied exact science subjects at a technical college in the mornings, while in the afternoons she did theater, journalism, television, cinema and photography. .

Sport has always fascinated him. She grew up in a purely sports environment. But he was also very fond of biotechnology, so it was difficult to give up that dream to embark on another in sports journalism.

, he told in the interview. In her beginnings, she worked on a radio program in Rosario and later made notes on the field. “One thing led to another”, said. And finally her dream came true.

After passing an audition, Moine began working at Fox Sports in 2004. “I had the fortune to debut in the program that I was watching on TV from Rosario”, he told La Nación. He remained in that sports chain until 2018 and,

One of the most important chapters of his career was when he interviewed none other than Diego Armando Mardona, idol of Argentine soccer. Alina had the opportunity to chat with ‘Pelusa’, which she described as the most special and difficult challenge of her profession.

“In the 2014 World Cup, in Brazil, I ran into him many times because Diego worked for Venezuelan television and I had the opportunity to interview him one-on-one for an hour. I think it will be very difficult to overcome that possibility that my profession gave me and much more now that Diego is not here because there will not be a second chance “he told La Nación.

In all this time, Alina has also worked as a model and has even worked as an actress in Argentina, which she would like to continue doing. “I gave myself the pleasure of doing some things, one of the last ones was a participation in El Host, with Adrián Suar. Today, with my schedule, it would be impossible, but perhaps some scenes in an episode of a series would be good. It’s a nice hobby.”he maintained in the interview.

His link with Gallardo

Alina Moinefrom Fox Sports, led the “Millionaire” celebrations and interviewed the person most responsible for the success, Marcelo Gallardo, in the midst of monumental jubilation.

After glances and complicity in that event, the rumors of a possible romance between the coach and the journalist did not take long to appear the following year, even less after learning that Geraldine La Rosa and Marcelo Gallardo had separated.

However, Moine was responsible for publicly denying the alleged relationship with Gallardo. “ And that I prefer not to talk about my life, I choose to take care of it externally”, he pointed. The environment of the DT also did the same.

Months later, the “Muñeco” and his wife Geraldine La Rosa became parents for the fourth time, after welcoming little Benjamin into the world. However, lately rumors of their separation have resurfaced and, more than three years after that River party, Gallardo and Moine have been romantically linked again.

River’s coach does not usually talk about his personal life, so he will most likely not make any statements about that link. For her part, Alina Moine is expected to pronounce herself as she did in 2019 and thus dispel all doubts. Meanwhile, the ball keeps rolling and the ‘Millionaire’ coach seeks to continue celebrating victories with his team.
