According to several media outlets in Argentina, Boca Juniors is close to closing the renovation of Eduardo “Toto” Salvio for the next season with the aim of keeping one of the leaders of his locker room on the squad. Important news for a project that aims to win the Conmebol Libertadores Cup in the short term.
Salvio ends his contract with Boca Juniors in the summer, so there was a lot of speculation about his possible departure to Brazilian football or a league outside of South America, but the player himself intends to stay because he is comfortable at the club and feels he can win important things despite the poor results of the last six months.
A major renovation
The xeneize team, who made interesting contracts in the transfer market, do not want to lose one of their starters in the middle of the season, so they are working day and night to close his contract extension.
The Argentine attacker arrived at Boca in the summer of 2019 for 7 million euros from Benfica, a club in which he was no longer an important piece and was looking for an exit as soon as possible after almost a decade in Europe.
He has 15 goals and 7 assists in 54 games played for the Argentine club (3 games and 0 goals so far this season), who dreams of being one of the names that leads them to win the Copa Conmebol Libertadores together with Darío Bendetto, Sebastian Villa, Oscar Romero and Pol Fernandez.
