When the Academy has the priority set on hiring the central marker that Gustavo Costas needs so much, in the last few hours a proposal appeared that took an important part of the attention and of which Gustavo Costas is already aware. As confirmed to this portal, Racing received an offer for Agustín Ojeda from abroad.
RdA was able to find out that a first offer from New York City was rejected by Racing. And that later there was a second one, close to 7,500,000 dollars, which is in full evaluation and with serious chances of being accepted. “The player is interested in leaving,” the club told this outlet.
Although the player’s future is still a question mark, if Trapito were to emigrate, the coaching staff would ask for reinforcements as a replacement. In that case, the target might be Benjamín Domínguez, the Gimnasia forward whom Racing went to look for in another transfer market. Specifically, when Johan Carbonero suffered a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
Gago promoted Agustín Ojeda to First Division, for whom Racing received an offer
Finally, at that moment, no one came and Fernando Gago (in 2022) decided to occupy that place precisely with Ojeda, who had been playing in the Reserve. Trapito has a current contract with Racing until December 2026 and a termination clause of 16,000,000 euros net.

In all competitions, Trapito Ojeda played 23 games in 2023, 12 since the start. Once Carbonero had recovered, Ojeda lost ground and this was more marked by the arrival of Santiago Solari in this transfer market. In any case, Costas considers him a good replacement part and that is why he is willing to request a replacement if Racing transfers him. This situation is what causes the leadership to hesitate to part with the 19-year-old player, one of the 17 that Gago made his debut in First Division. In total, with the Academy shirt he played 24 games, with three goals and two assists.
So far in the transfer market, Racing has made three sales. These are Gonzalo Piovi (to Cruz Azul of Mexico for 2,500,000 net dollars), Aníbal Moreno (to Palmeiras of Brazil for 7,500,000 gross dollars) and Nicolás Oroz (to Argentinos Juniors for 2,000,000 gross dollars for 80 % of the token). In addition, Maximiliano Romero (loan to Argentinos), Gabriel Hauche (free), Emiliano Insúa (retired from football), Catriel Cabellos (loaned to Alianza Lima of Peru) and Emiliano Saliadarre (Independiente Rivadavia de Mendoza) left.
In terms of incorporations, Racing continues to make efforts in search of a defender that Costas urgently needs due to his lack of replacement in that area of the field. Today those targeted are Agustín García Basso (Independiente del Valle of Ecuador) and Emanuel Gularte (Querétaro of Mexico). Until now, in this transfer market, Adrián Martínez, Maximiliano Salas, Santiago Solari (forwards), Facundo Cambeses (goalkeeper), Bruno Zuculini and Santiago Sosa (central midfielders) joined the squad.
