The truth behind Boca’s interest in Miguel Borja | OneFootball

After the controversial statements by the Colombian, who still has a contract with River despite having said goodbye, various versions began to circulate about an alleged contact with the Xeneize for this transfer market.

Does Miguel Borja have a chance to play for Boca? The striker himself, who still has a contract with River until the end of December despite having already said goodbye, sparked controversy with his recent statements. He didn't close the door, and immediately, rumors about a bombshell transfer began to circulate.

However, according to tycsports.com, at this point there have been no contacts between the parties, and he is not a player that Juan Román Riquelme has on his list as a potential reinforcement for the next season, when he will become a free agent.

While it is true that in the past - after the 2021 Copa América - the now-defunct Football Council approached with the intention of acquiring the Colombian's services, a transfer that ultimately did not happen because "I had a contract with Palmeiras and they decided that I should go to Junior de Barranquilla", today he is not on the Xeneize's list of acquisitions.

Boca is looking for one or two center forwards to strengthen the squad ahead of 2026 when they will return to the 2026 Copa Libertadores, but Borja is not considered an option after his stint with River. In fact, the entourage of the 32-year-old striker denied any kind of call or offer, and also emphasized that his most likely destination is Mexico.

For now, there are no contacts and it's unlikely there will be any, according to the information accessed by this medium, so the rumors are nothing more than that: simple rumors on the eve of what promises to be a busier transfer market than ever.

Borja didn't close the door to Boca

What did Borja say? “I have a brother here who is a Boca fan, but now I'm thinking about enjoying the holidays and considering the best option for my family. Fortunately, the option to return to Argentina is open and that's very nice,” the Colombian confessed.

Subsequently, the mentioned relative of the center forward interrupted the interview, affirmed that he is a Boca fan, and shared his opinion candidly:
