✈️ Who's heading to the US? Boca finalise plans for the Club World Cup | OneFootball

The 'Xeneize' squad is training under the orders of Miguel Ángel Russo, who is waiting for reinforcements for the international competition.

Boca Juniors travels this Sunday night to the United States to participate in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. While Miguel Ángel Russo's squad works on their preparation, the Football Council wants to speed up the signing of reinforcements for the world tournament.

Russo, who began his third cycle as coach at the club, is waiting for negotiations to come to fruition to incorporate Marco Pellegrino (AC Milan) and Malcom Braida (San Lorenzo), who are shaping up to be the first signings of the season.

The 'Xeneize' coach has decided to take his entire squad to the United States, except for two players: Cristian Lema and Esteban Rolón.

According to journalist César Luis Merlo, efforts continue for Ayrton Costa to obtain a visa through the United States consulate to travel to the United States. He would be included in the squad list while his situation is resolved. The deadline to submit the list is until Tuesday, June 10.

In their last practice, Russo tested two formations. In the first, he lined up Marchesín; Barinaga, Figal, Costa, Saracchi; Belmonte, Herrera, Alarcón; Zeballos, Janson, and Zenón. The second team consisted of Brey; Kevin Giménez, Di Lollo, Rojo, Blanco; Battaglia, Delgado, Velasco; Martegani, Merentiel, and Aguirre. Both teams were set up with a 4-3-3 tactical scheme.

The 2025 Club World Cup will be held in the United States, and Boca Juniors will be one of the South American representatives along with Flamengo, Palmeiras, Fluminense, River Plate, and Botafogo.
