Boca today continues with the preseason that began on January 2 in Ezeiza. The team led by Claudio Úbeda is intensifying its work with double training sessions that will extend until the 10th of this month. Meanwhile, the Xeneize management is working on the transfer market.
With no reinforcements in sight for the moment, Marcelo Delgado is working on the departures that need to be finalized in this window. All players returning from their respective loans will be loaned out again, as they will not be considered by the coach.
More than 20 players will not be considered by the coach and will need to find a club. In this regard, several players are already in advanced talks to move abroad again. Juan Ramírez and Nicolás Orsini are wanted by Barracas Central. On the other hand, Agustín Martegani is wanted by Central Córdoba.
Additionally, Norberto Briasco and Valentino Simoni are in negotiations with Gimnasia de Mendoza, and Oscar Salomón is wanted by Newell’s. There is also interest from a Chilean club to acquire a percentage of Renzo Giampaoli's transfer.

Riquelme and Delgado are working on the transfer market.
Dylan Gorosito, Santiago Zampieri, Tomás Aranda, and Leonel Flores will join the work already being done by the first team. Since the reserve players had less rest time, they will be available to Úbeda this Monday to start training with them and leave Mariano Herrón's team.

Gorosito, Zampieri, Aranda, and Flores.
The management has organized two friendly matches as part of the preparation before the official competition scheduled for the end of the month. Both opponents will be international teams, and one of the chosen venues is La Bombonera.
The first commitment for the team led by Claudio Úbeda will be against Millonarios from Colombia. The match will take place at the Alberto J. Armando stadium on Wednesday, January 14. It has not yet been decided if there will be a public presence, although there is a high probability that it will be played with fans.

Boca today decided to play friendlies against Millonarios and Nacional.
The second friendly is scheduled for Sunday, January 18, against Nacional from Uruguay. This preparation match would be played at the Estadio Único de San Nicolás. Although official confirmation is pending, the Xeneize management intends to finalize it, and the announcement would be made shortly.
Thus, the team led by Claudio Úbeda will have two preparation matches before the start of the season, which will begin on Sunday, January 25, against Deportivo Riestra at La Bombonera.
