The management of Boca continues working in the transfer market which has been extended due to the injury and surgery of Rodrigo Battaglia. In the coming hours, they might secure another extension by loaning a player abroad.
With Juan Román Riquelme at the helm alongside Marcelo Delgado, the Xeneize remains expectant about what they can achieve in the transfer window, which was extended because the midfielder underwent surgery for chronic insertional tendinopathy of the right Achilles tendon. This injury will sideline him for the entire semester and the start of the next one.
However, Battaglia's absence might not be the only opportunity that opens up for Boca to seek a third reinforcement. Libertad from Paraguay has initiated negotiations to take Agustín Martegani. The midfielder is not considered by Claudio Úbeda and hasn't played for a long time.

The Paraguayan team is looking to loan Agustín Martegani for a year. This would give the Xeneize until March to close the arrival of another player. Why? Because the Argentine Football Association established that clubs that sell or loan a player abroad can replace them.
Boca could sign a player due to Battaglia's injury until February 18, and if they finalize Martegani's loan to Libertad of Paraguay, they would have the chance to add another reinforcement until March 10.
According to reports, the Pincha would not accept the new terms proposed by Boca to continue with the arrival of the Colombian winger. The private medical studies received by the Xeneize indicate that he has a knee problem and they are not willing to pay what they initially offered.

The team from La Ribera now wants a loan with a purchase option, but this offer does not suit Estudiantes because they need the money to improve their finances. Meanwhile, Paranaense has reportedly returned to pursue him. It should be noted that the Brazilian team withdrew from his signing after the medical examination.
