While the squad is on leave enjoying their vacations, the management of Boca is working in the transfer market and they are focused on having a good transfer window to strengthen the team for the upcoming season. In this regard, there are several players who will not continue at the club, such as Lucas Blondel.

The right back did not have opportunities under Claudio Úbeda’s management and is one of the definite departures for the team looking ahead to 2026. His destination could be La Paternal, Avellaneda, or a return to Victoria. With his departure about to be finalized, possibly to one of the aforementioned destinations, his partner, Morena Beltrán, shared her theory about his lack of playing time

Blondel would be leaving the club.

“These last six months have been more difficult because to this day we still have the uncertainty of why the coaching staff never wanted him or wanted him so little,” the journalist began in statements to Unbox.

When asked if she feels responsible, she said, “Yes, but it’s something you can’t verify. It’s unprovable. At the time, I think it was Toti Pasman who said that in his opinion he didn’t play because of the relationship I have with him. But well, the truth is that Lucas has been at Boca since mid-2023, this is his fifth coach, with the previous four coaches he may have been a substitute or a starter, but he played.” 

She also added: “It’s hard when you see someone give so much and on the other side it’s not valued, when there’s no chance, no opportunity. And it also happens to come at one of the best moments of your career because you’re going to the Swiss National Team, because you’ve been doing things well. These are situations that happen in football, that a coach may not like you and, well, this happens.”

It’s almost certain that the right back will no longer wear the blue and gold from next season. Xeneize has already received an offer from Argentinos Juniors to take the player on loan to play in the preliminary phase of the Copa Libertadores.
