River open talks for Jhohan Romaña, San Lorenzo defender: the details | OneFootball

The Millionaire has begun negotiations to purchase 50% of the rights to the Colombian defender, in a deal that is being handled cautiously due to the institutional context of the Cyclone.

River has started to make moves in the transfer market, and one of the names on their list is Jhohan Romaña. The club from Núñez is negotiating with San Lorenzo to buy 50% of the Colombian center-back’s rights, a deal that has already seen formal contact between the parties.

The talks are well advanced both with the player’s camp and with the Cyclone’s directors. The process is being led by Mariano Barnao, a regular intermediary in this type of operation, and the goal is for the Millionaire to acquire half of the defender’s rights, as he is one of the main targets to strengthen the defense for the upcoming season.

Nonetheless, those in Núñez are handling the matter with caution. The main point of concern is not the player or his agent, but rather the complex institutional situation currently affecting the blue and red club and the uncertainty surrounding the leadership headed by Marcelo Moretti. This context forces La Banda to proceed prudently, even though their interest is real.

Amid the negotiations, Romaña also left a message that did not go unnoticed. In the last few hours, the Colombian defender posted a story on his Instagram account with the phrase “Everything passes,” accompanied by a thoughtful photo of himself. A brief but suggestive post that fueled speculation in a decisive moment and reinforced the idea that his future could be far from Boedo.

Romaña, who is currently performing well at San Lorenzo, appears to be an option that fits the profile sought by Marcelo Gallardo and River’s coaching staff: a young defender, with experience in Argentine football and room to grow. As talks continue, both clubs are waiting for the leadership situation to become clearer in order to decide whether the deal can be closed or if it will have to wait.
