Leonel Flores debuts large chest tattoo amid rising Boca Juniors profile
Boca Juniors attacker Leonel Flores has revealed a large new chest tattoo featuring three angels. The design depicts one angel covering its ears, another covering its eyes, and a third covering its mouth, which fans interpret as a symbolic gesture to ignore criticism.
The tattoo artist, Gerko. Tattoo, shared video footage of the session on social media, which quickly went viral among supporters. The imagery has also sparked memes among fans referencing the game ‘Copero’, where tattoos can affect a player's virtual stats.
This development follows a period of rising prominence for the 19-year-old, who recently gained attention for a technical goal against Recoleta in the Copa Sudamericana. During his celebrations, Flores notably paid homage to Carlos Tévez, a gesture that has further heightened expectations for his career at the club.
