Boca step up chase for Sebastián Villa as fourth signing | OneFootball

Boca opened a new slot after loaning Lucas Blondel to Huracán and is negotiating the signing of Sebastián Villa as their fourth reinforcement. The forward is currently with Independiente Rivadavia.

President Juan Román Riquelme is leading the negotiations. In January, the player tried to leave the Mendoza club, but the deal did not go through due to the requested amount, which was close to 12 million dollars.

The deadline to sign players is extended until March 10. Boca will have one week to try to finalize the transfer. Villa left the club in 2023 after being convicted of gender-based violence. He then played abroad and returned to Argentine football in 2024. There are ongoing legal disputes between the player and Boca, both in court and before FIFA.
