Estudiantes keen on Brian Aguirre, in talks with Boca over a loan deal | OneFootball

Estudiantes has begun negotiations with Boca for the loan of Brian Aguirre. The winger is one of the alternatives that appeals to Eduardo Domínguez in light of the possible departure of Edwin Cetré, and although the player has already given the green light to move, the parties are still far from reaching an agreement.

Aguirre’s sporting situation at Boca has not changed much at the start of 2026. The 23-year-old attacker, who only played a few minutes in the debut against Deportivo Riestra, is not among Claudio Úbeda’s top choices and lost ground at the end of last semester, coinciding with the rise of Exequiel Zeballos.

From La Plata, they are moving forward with a loan deal that includes a purchase option for a percentage of the player’s rights, a negotiation that is proceeding independently from the transfer of Santiago Ascacibar, although both could be resolved in the coming days. Boca, which invested around 4.6 million dollars in Aguirre in 2024, is considering the deal as a way to give him more playing time and continuity.

Pincha’s interest intensified following the imminent departure of Cetré to Athletico Paranaense, a scenario that opens up a vacancy in the attacking front. At Estudiantes, they believe Aguirre could have a bigger role and more continuity, which are key for his development.

For now, the negotiation faces obstacles regarding the percentage of the player’s rights to be negotiated and his salary. Meanwhile, Boca is confident that a potential departure will not affect the squad’s structure, as long as other attacking reinforcements are secured. The talks remain open and awaiting resolution.
