Boca Juniors Close to Signing Paraguayan Striker Adam Bareiro
Boca Nearing Completion of Transfer
Boca Juniors are confident of completing the signing of Adam Bareiro before the transfer window extension ends on Friday. The move is aimed at reinforcing the team’s attacking options following an injury to Rodrigo Battaglia.
Injury Spurs Transfer Pursuit
The Argentine Football Association granted Boca extra time to find a replacement for Battaglia after he underwent surgery on an Achilles tendon injury. Juan Román Riquelme, leading the club’s hierarchy, has prioritized Bareiro, who currently plays for Fortaleza in Brazil.
Negotiations and Payment Structure
Boca have submitted a formal offer for the Paraguayan striker, and are preparing for a key meeting with Fortaleza’s management. “According to LaNumer12.com.ar, the hierarchy led by Juan Román Riquelme are optimistic of confirming a third addition in this window,” the report states.
Fortaleza have responded to Boca’s initial bid, but the Argentine side do not plan to move from three million dollars for 100 percent of the Paraguayan’s rights, though they have adjusted the payment schedule.
There is optimism a full purchase agreement will be reached in the coming hours.
Contract Details and Previous Argentine Experience
If the transfer is finalized without complications, Bareiro is expected to travel for a medical examination and subsequently sign a three-year contract. The 29-year-old has prior experience playing in Argentina, having featured for both San Lorenzo and River Plate.
Notably, River Plate still retain a percentage of the rights to Bareiro, but will be obligated to abide by Fortaleza’s decision regarding the transfer.
