Boca deny talks with Miguel Borja, but won’t rule out a move | OneFootball

In the last few hours, a rumor emerged that Boca contacted Miguel Borja after his statements in which he did not close the door to a possible arrival at the Ribera club. However, from the Xeneize side, they denied any type of communication.

The Boca management is already working on assembling the squad to face 2026, where the team will have to compete on several fronts. With the Copa Libertadores as the main objective, the summer transfer market will be key to adding high-quality reinforcements.

In this regard, the name of Miguel Borja was put on the table following the public statements of the Colombian forward, who is leaving River Plate and will be a free agent starting January 1st. The native of Tierralta did not close the door to Boca, despite his time with their biggest rival, where he played 159 matches and scored 62 goals.

Borja leaves River after almost three years.

In the last few hours, a journalistic rumor emerged that Boca had contacted him to see if he was really interested in joining the team, but the club denies this information. Additionally, a source told this outlet that it is not a possibility at this time.

Nonetheless, the Xeneize is not closing the door, and a possible rapprochement between the parties remains on the table. It is worth remembering that before joining River, the forward was close to wearing the blue and gold jersey, but they could not agree on the numbers, and the deal fell through.

The Destination of Miguel Borja

Although the rumor has gained traction and could turn into a transfer saga, the truth is that it is unlikely to happen. Furthermore, there is a club interested in acquiring the Colombian, and it would have a very significant financial offer.

The Colombian would play for Cruz Azul.

According to reports in Mexico, Cruz Azul already has a verbal agreement with the forward to become a reinforcement for the Máquina Celeste. Although his contract with River ends on December 31st, he has already been dismissed by the club, though he will have to wait until January 1st to sign with another institution, so the saga with the Xeneize could add another chapter.
