It only remains to finish some administrative issues so that Merentiel be the second addition of Mouth in this season; the first was the Paraguayan defender Bruno Valdez.
If the transfer takes place, the 26-year-old Uruguayan-born striker would travel to Buenos Aires between Wednesday and next Thursday to undergo a medical check-up and sign a contract with “Xeneize”.
It will come on loan for one year, with a charge and with a purchase option, although the amount of the conditions of the agreement has not yet been made official.
The pass book closes this Thursday and the idea is that the Uruguayan will be training with his new teammates on Friday.
Educated in the Peñarol Inferior Leagues, Merentiel began his professional career at Tanque Sisley in Montevideo and immediately went to the Spanish ascent: he went through Lorca in the second division, Valencia B in the third category, until he reached Godoy Cruz de Mendoza in early 2019, to later sign with Defensa y Justicia where he won the Copa Sudamericana.
On the other hand, Boca continues to insist that merolla be the left-footed defender the coach needs Hugo IbarraOf these characteristics, only Marcos Rojo has, who comes from a ligament operation and will only be available for June of this year.
For now, beyond the fact that the members of the soccer secretariat have already arranged a 4-year contract with the soccer player, the pass through the Huracán defender is a little more stuck than in previous days.
The “Xeneize” offered 400 thousand dollars and the debt of the “Globe” for Franco Cristaldobut it seems insufficient to the leaders of Huracán.
The obstacle is because there would be another offer, according to the people of Huracán, from the Riga Football Club of Latvia, who is willing to pay 1.5 million dollarsbut the point is that the 27-year-old defender wants to wear the blue and gold jersey, just as he said Juan roman riquelmesecond vice president of Boca, in a note made last week on ESPN.
The player did not concentrate with his teammates for tomorrow’s game that Huracán will play against Yupanqui for the 32nd round of the Argentine Cup.
Today, the book of passes in Europe closes and this circumstance will be key to knowing what the future of the footballer is.
While in the next few days, the juvenile Valentine Boat will sign a bond for one more year, its file expires on December 31 of the current year.
The leading marker, one of the ones with the greatest future in the lower leagues, had an offer from Getafe of 4 million dollars for fifty percent of his pass, which was ultimately not accepted by Boca.
This morning, the professional squad returned to practice and the novelty was the presence of Colombian defender Frank Fabra, who played and was captain of his country’s team in the 0-0 draw against the United States.
Finally, the defender Agustín Sández underwent studies on his right knee, because he was injured in the victory last Sunday against Atlético de Tucumán 1-0 and the medical report is expected.
Boca will play again at home against Central Córdoba in Santiago del Estero, next Sunday from 7:15 p.m. for the second date of the Professional Football League (LPF).
