Ian Subiabre set to renew with River and play at the Under-20 World Cup | OneFootball

The back-and-forth ended with a happy ending. In the midst of a complicated week for River, with the elimination in the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores against Palmeiras and the defeat to Atlético Tucumán in the local championship, the Millionaire can close this Friday with good news regarding its squad.

The saga concerning the future of Ian Subiabre has come to an end. The young player, who was in conflict regarding his contract renewal, has finally agreed, in principle, to renew his contract with River and will be available again for Marcelo Gallardo. Additionally, he will also be part of the Argentine National Team squad for the Under-20 World Cup.

The AFA, as a form of pressure in this issue, had conditioned Subiabre's presence in Diego Placente's team. If he did not renew with the Núñez team, he would not be able to participate in the youth tournament to be held in Chile. Finally, for the story to have a positive outcome, his renewal with River was sealed this Friday.

The main obstacle in his renewal was a dispute between the two parties. River wanted to set a release clause of 100 million dollars, like all its young players, but his representation - led by Claudio Paul Caniggia - refused unless he was given a salary commensurate with that clause.

After this back-and-forth, which lasted months and became much more tense in recent days, a meeting was held at the AFA where a renewal was agreed that satisfied all parties. Ian Subiabre will once again be considered by Gallardo at River and will be able to play in the Under-20 World Cup without any issues. End of the saga.

Finally, Subiabre's entourage and the player himself agreed to extend his contract with River until December 2028. Additionally, his salary will be improved, and he will be secured with the 100 million dollar release clause that Bautista Dadín, Santiago Lencina, and Alex Woiski, among other young players, already have.

Subiabre's Numbers for the Year
