The negotiations between Boca Juniors and San Lorenzo for Alexis Cuello have ended without an agreement. Despite being Juan Román Riquelme's priority during this market, the "Xeneize" decided to withdraw from the table after the systematic rejection of their economic proposals by the Boedo club.
Boca's last offer, which amounted to 3 million dollars for 60% of the transfer, was deemed insufficient by the management led by Sergio Constantino. Faced with the "Ciclón's" inflexible stance, those in Ezeiza considered the dialogue exhausted and confirmed that the forward will continue wearing the blue and red jersey during the 2026 season.
Riquelme's new plan for the attack
With the collapse of Cuello's transfer, Boca is reorganizing its priorities to strengthen the offense before the debut in the Torneo Apertura. The club seeks to quickly close three open fronts:
- Ángel Romero: The Paraguayan is expected to be announced in the coming hours as the first official reinforcement.
- Kevin Serna: Negotiations for the Colombian are progressing positively due to his versatility.
- A new "9": After the refusal for Cuello, the Football Council is already working on a name under wraps to occupy the center of the attack.
Meanwhile, San Lorenzo celebrates the continuity of their attacker, who will be a fundamental piece in Damián Ayude's scheme for the start of the championship.
