With absentees and more youngsters: Boca named squad for Central Córdoba | OneFootball

Rodolfo Arruabarrena announced Boca’s squad list to host Central Córdoba this Friday at La Bombonera. The head coach is turning to more youth players following the absences of two players who had a chance to be in the starting lineup.

El Vasco revealed which players will make up the Xeneize squad and training camp for this Friday’s match, corresponding to the ninth round of the 2026 Clausura Tournament. The list was put together after this morning’s training session at the Ezeiza training ground, where another injury absence was confirmed.

Camilo Rey Domenech suffered discomfort in his adductor and will not be available for this match, in which he was shaping up to start. Álvaro Montero will not be there either; the goalkeeper traveled to Colombia after the match against São Paulo because his grandmother passed away, and the club granted him leave so he could make the trip. That leave extends through the weekend, so he will miss the match.

Given these absences, Vasco Arruabarrena decided to promote two more youth players from the reserve team. They are Lautaro Mendieta, a midfielder from the 2006 age group, and forward Rodrigo Bacidalupe from the 2007 age group. Both played yesterday against Platense in the Reserve Proyección Tournament, where Herrón’s team won 2-0 with two goals from the center forward.
