Boca Juniors finalized the departure of Agustín Martegani, who will play on loan at Newell’s Old Boys of Rosario. The midfielder, who joined the club from La Ribera in mid-2024 after an investment of 2.5 million dollars, failed to establish himself in the first team. Under the technical direction of Claudio Úbeda, the player had lost ground, being left out of the squad in recent matches and accumulating only 13 appearances with the Xeneize jersey.

Due to the lack of playing time and the player's need to relaunch his career, the club presided over by Juan Román Riquelme sought a solution that would benefit both parties. Although there were inquiries from Central Córdoba of Santiago del Estero and an offer from Libertad of Paraguay to move abroad, the midfielder's destination will ultimately be at Parque Independencia. The operation is concluded as a sporting solution for the player and a strategic advantage for the institution.

The most relevant aspect of the agreement lies in the regulatory compensation that Boca will receive. Despite AFA rules usually requiring a transfer abroad to enable out-of-term reinforcements, the club from La Ribera will be able to make an additional signing until March 10. This is possible because Newell’s will transfer its own regulatory quota, allowing Boca to remain active in the transfer market to compensate for Martegani's departure.
