Boca sign Ángel Romero after missing out on Hinestroza | OneFootball

Neither Marino Hinestroza nor Alexis Cuello, Boca has secured its first signing: it will be the Paraguayan Ángel Romero, who arrives with his transfer in hand after his time at Corinthians. The 33-year-old footballer agreed with Juan Román Riquelme to join the Ribera club in a matter of hours.

The president of the Xeneize club reached a verbal agreement for the Paraguayan to become the first signing of this transfer window. A transfer window that has been complicated for the club following the rejection by the Colombian winger and the obstacles set by the Ciclón for their forward.

When it seemed that the blue and gold team was on track to quickly secure Marino Hinestroza, the situation became complicated. So much so that his arrival was ultimately ruled out, and the winger chose to prioritize the financial aspect and opted for Vasco da Gama.

In the other ongoing negotiation, things followed the same pattern. San Lorenzo is unwilling to sell Alexis Cuello and is putting up barriers to prevent his transfer to the Xeneize. However, with Ángel Romero, things were easier.

One of the reasons is that the Paraguayan has his transfer in hand after being released from Corinthians, where he bid farewell as a historic figure of the institution. The attacker left as the foreign player with the most appearances (377 matches) and the top foreign scorer with 67 goals. Additionally, he left his mark at the Neo Química Arena, where he became the second top scorer in history with 43 goals in 179 matches.
