Boca Juniors already has Juan Román Riquelme in office and is still waiting for the confirmation of Diego Martínez as coach, since he has not yet managed to separate himself from Huracán, but in the meantime he set his eyes on the former Racing Club Paraguayan midfielder, Matías Rojas, in conflict with his current club, Corinthians, from Brazil, while Marcos Rojo and Cristian Medina might leave, tempted by Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami.
Corinthians has a significant financial debt with Rojas and the same goes for former Argentinos Juniors Argentine midfielder Fausto Vera, so both are on the way out of the São Paulo club, and Boca will try to take advantage of that situation to obtain the services of the Paraguayan.
Of course, this possibility is framed by the offer he received in the last few hours from Inter Miami to take Cristian Medina, which would leave the midfield “lame” for when Martínez finally arrives as technical director.
But the Americans are not only following in Medina’s footsteps, but they are also targeting Rojo, who has a good relationship with Messi following his time with the Argentine national team, especially when it was coached by Gerardo Martino, current coach of Inter Miami.
And precisely “Tata” personally contacted Rojo to convince him to change his scene once more (he played several years for the English Manchester United) and join the Miami team to play in the MLS.
Another problem that Boca has for the start of the next 2024 League Cup is the massive absence in the first days of the footballers mentioned by Javier Mascherano for the Argentine Under-23 team that will play in the Pre-Olympic, in Venezuela, starting on the 20th. from January.
Those players are goalkeeper Leandro Brey, defender Nicolás Valentini and the entire midfield: the aforementioned Medina, Ezequiel Fernández and Valentín Barco. That’s why Martínez will have to sharpen his ingenuity to put it together, and in that aspect Rojas wouldn’t hurt him at all.
