You should inlcude the values for the data you need at the top of the PAGE, before the HEADER gets called.
That way, the values will be available to populate the vars included in the HEADER.

"VEL" responde to my question:
did you place add_action('wp_head','mySEO'); and mySEO function in functions.php? – vel
and call mySEO the function in your template
complete answer:
this is in function.php:
function mySEO($title,$description,$image,$url) { echo '
<title>'.$title.'</title>
<meta name="description" content="'.$description.'" />
<meta itemprop="name" content="'.$title.'">
<meta itemprop="description" content="'.$description.'">
<meta itemprop="image" content="'.$image.'">
<meta name="twitter:site" content="@Tw">
<meta name="twitter:title" content="'.$title.'">
<meta name="twitter:description" content="'.$description.'">
<meta name="twitter:creator" content="@Tw">
<meta name="twitter:image" content="'.$url.'">
<meta property="og:title" content="'.$title.'" />
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:url" content="'.$url.'" />
<meta property="og:image" content="'.$image.'" />
<meta property="og:description" content="'.$description.'" />
<meta property="og:site_name" content="SITE" />';
}
add_action("wp_head","mySEO");
in mypage.php (custom page template) just call function mySEO($title,$description,$image,$url);
