Independiente Rivadavia confirm River want Villa, reveal price | OneFootball

The potential arrival of Sebastián Villa at River Plate has become one of the sagas of the current transfer market. The team led by Marcelo Gallardo is looking to strengthen its forward line and recently inquired about the situation of the Colombian, who intends to leave Independiente Rivadavia de Mendoza.

In this context, Daniel Vila, president of the Mendoza "Lepra," made statements to the program Marketing Registrado (Fox Sports), where he confirmed the interest of the "Millonario." Vila stated that he was contacted from Núñez, but they have not yet responded after receiving the player's valuation.

"Sebastián fulfilled his role at Independiente, that was the commitment I made to him and I will fulfill it," Vila began, referring to the sale agreement with the former Boca Juniors player. "In June of last year, he had a significant offer to leave Independiente, he stayed and set the condition of being the team captain."

Additionally, the president highlighted the player's positive role in the locker room: "The truth is it was the best decision we made because he was such a positive leader for the group, but with the commitment that at the end of the year he would seek other horizons, and that is what we are looking for now."

"Vila concluded his remarks by confirming that there have been no new contacts from River: "Villa is worth what the buyer pays. We were in talks with the president of River, he promised to get back to me after I gave him a value for the player, but he hasn't called me back. I suppose they are evaluating."With negotiations for other targets (Santino Andino and Maher Carrizo) being complex, River could resume talks for Villa. Independiente Rivadavia remains firm in their stance of 12 million dollars, while Núñez seeks to negotiate that figure, possibly including other players in the deal to reduce the cost.
