Boca officially announced its squad for the 2026 Copa Sudamericana. With the return of historic figures, several new faces from the latest transfer window, and a strong youth presence, the Xeneize begin their journey in the competition.
Rodolfo Arruabarrena put together the official squad list to kick off his team’s participation in the continent’s second-most important competition. While playing in this tournament feels like a consolation prize after being eliminated from the Copa Libertadores, the club from La Ribera still has a chance to compete for a title.
The squad list shows a clear intention to boost the talents developed at the training ground and give them international experience. Names like Lautaro Tomás Aranda, Dylan Gorosito, and Leonel Flores earned their well-deserved spots through effort and consistency. This strong commitment to the youth academy reflects the long-term planning currently being upheld by the club’s leadership, along with the three signings who arrived in the winter transfer window.

Boca has everything set for its debut.
Below is the full extended list submitted by the Xeneize to CONMEBOL authorities. The squad includes both the usual high-profile starters and the young prospects who complete the list allowed under the current regulations.
In addition to the new signings and academy youngsters, the squad also brings the news that several players changed their numbers. The most notable case is Tomás Aranda, who inherited the No. 10 shirt worn by Edinson Cavani.
The Xeneize will face O'Higgins in the first leg of the round of 32. The match will be played on Thursday, July 23, starting at 9:30 p.m. at La Bombonera. Andrés Matonte will referee the match, while Christian Ferreyra will be on VAR duty. The game will be broadcast on DSports.
