Galoppo gives São Paulo a new reason to watch River Plate | OneFootball

Giuliano Galoppo, currently on loan at River Plate from São Paulo, registered his first goal for the Argentine giants in their commanding 3-0 win over San Martín Tucumán last Saturday, as reported by Arquibancada Tricolor. The midfielder found the net during the second round of the Copa Argentina, with the match played at the Estadio Único Madre de Ciudades.

Galoppo, who made the switch to River Plate on loan in January, is contracted with the Buenos Aires club until December 31, 2025. The deal includes a purchase option, which would be triggered if performance targets are met during his loan spell.

The goal arrives early in Galoppo’s River Plate tenure, providing a tangible boost to his adaptation at the club and giving São Paulo another reason to monitor his progress closely. River Plate’s victory keeps them in a strong position in the Copa Argentina, and Galoppo’s involvement in the scoreline signals that he could play a more prominent midfield role as the competition unfolds.

For São Paulo, Galoppo’s development on loan takes on added significance as the club weighs future squad-building options amid injury concerns and a congested fixture list. How he continues to perform in high-stakes matches for River Plate will likely influence decisions about his long-term place in the São Paulo setup—or, if goals and performances accumulate, potentially secure a permanent switch to Argentina.
