the novel of edinson cavani added a new key chapter, which may serve to finally the Uruguayan striker can lead to Boca: After a long negotiation the scorer sealed his departure from Valenciapassed essential for the Argentine club to start a negotiation with the footballer
After Valencia’s preseason in Switzerland, the directors of the Spanish club returned to their country this Friday and held a meeting with Cavani’s representative, Walter Gugliolmone, with whom agreed to terminate the contract in a sum close to a million and a half dollars for the year that remained to be fulfilled. The arrangement met the expectations of both parties: Valencia no longer wanted to have the striker’s services to release a quota for foreigners and The Uruguayan wants to return to South America for family reasons.
Faced with this situation already resolved, Boca’s chances begin to increase. So much so that Cristian Cavani, the footballer’s brother, was encouraged to predict that the future of the sky-blue international will be in La Ribera. “Edinson’s first choice is to play in Boca, when the Valencia thing is unlocked, I think he will go to Boca, that is my opinion”declared Cristian Cavani in an interview with the channel ESPN.
Although he was cautious, Cavani’s brother accepted that there were offers from the Middle East and Brazil, but he commented that the player’s decision is to be close to his family. Based on this, the chance to play in Argentina is one of the proposals that most seduces him.
In Boca they remain calm about the possibility, but still They do not forget that last year, when the operation was about to be completed, the footballer continued his career in Europe. However, the xeneize leadership is very optimistic that the “Matador” will finally arrive at the club, after having spoken on several occasions with Juan Román Riquelme, the club’s first vice president.
If the negotiation is successful, The idea of the leaders of Boca is to speed up the agreement as much as possible so that Cavani, 36, signs an 18-month contract and is the highest salary in the planthe. The illusion of Riquelme and company is to register him for the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, which is why the club has already reserved a foreign quota for him with the dismissal of Paraguayan midfielder Óscar Romero.
The rush to close Cavani’s entry is due to the fact that, by Conmebol regulation, Boca will have time until Saturday until 6:00 p.m. in Paraguay (7:00 p.m. in Argentina) to present up to a maximum of three provisional players. that will have to be regularized on Monday the 31st of this year.
Jorge Almirón’s team will play 72 hours after registration closes against Nacional in Montevideo for the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, to close the key on August 9 at La Bombonera.
With the mind in Independent
Regarding the preparation for the classic against Independiente, Uruguayan Miguel Merentiel and Darío Benedetto shared the attacking duo in a tactical exercise carried out during practice at the Ezeiza Training Center.
Lucas Janson, one of the two closed incorporations in this market, continues to recover from a tear in the iliopsoas of his right leg and it is expected that next week he will train alongside the squad.
Boca possibly uses a mix between starters and substitutes in Avellanedawith the doubt if the midfielder Alan Varela will be summoned, who is still waiting for the tax issue that unlocks his pass to Porto de Portugal to be resolved in a figure close to 13 million dollars.
Boca will return to practice this Friday at Ezeiza, where surely the coach stops a possible eleven to play on Saturday at the Libertadores de América-Ricardo Enrique Bochini stadium from 5:00 p.m., for the last date of the Professional League, with the arbitration of Nicolás Ramírez.
