Lucas Blondel valued at $15m, eyes more game time before World Cup | OneFootball

The transfer market at Boca has not gained momentum yet, as Juan Román Riquelme has not finalized any deals. So far, the president is exploring options for different players, such as Alan Lescano, Marino Hinestroza, and Gastón Hernández.

While the continuity of Claudio Úbeda is being finalized - he is expected to remain in his position, but official confirmation from the Board of Directors is pending - Riquelme knows that the future of Lucas Blondel seems to be far from Brandsen 805. The right-back is not considered by the coaching staff and wants a change of scenery.

In recent days, it has been confirmed that the 29-year-old right-back is on the radar of Huracán, Racing, and Tigre, but there has been no formal offer to take him away from Xeneize. As if that weren't enough, he is willing to move to any destination that guarantees him playing time, as his main goal is to be called up to the Swiss National Team - his last appearance was in the June 2025 FIFA date, where he played 24 minutes against the United States.

The former Atlético Rafaela player knows that the 2026 World Cup is just around the corner, so he is waiting for Riquelme to confirm whether they will loan him out or open communication channels with other clubs to sell him, as he has a release clause set at 15 million dollars.

Lucas Blondel's numbers for the season

Throughout the 2025 season, the 29-year-old right-back played a total of 12 matches with the Boca jersey (32 since joining the club, 4 goals) and another four with the Swiss National Team. In these, he did not score any goals but provided two assists. Additionally, he received one yellow card and was not sent off in 932 minutes on the field.
