Lautaro Vargas, Unión’s 21-year-old right back, has become one of the most sought-after players in the current transfer market. Sources close to Boca Juniors say that the Football Council is closely monitoring the player and that coach Rodolfo Arruabarrena has given the green light to begin talks. Although no formal financial offer has been submitted yet, the Buenos Aires club has already made an initial inquiry to learn the terms of a possible transfer.

The youngster’s rise in Santa Fe

  • Plenty of playing time: Vargas gained experience in the Copa Sudamericana, Copa Argentina, and domestic competitions.
  • Key stat: Between the 2025 and 2026 seasons, the defender played more than 50 official matches wearing the Tatengue shirt.
  • Main strengths: He stood out in the first team for his consistency, personality, and smart attacking runs.

Unión holds the upper hand in negotiations

Unión’s board is in a strong position amid Boca’s interest. Since the player’s contract does not include a release clause, any interested club will have to negotiate the transfer fee directly with the Santa Fe leadership. As he is considered a strategic asset for the club, Unión will only agree to let the player go in exchange for a very favorable financial offer.
