Boca renew their push for Cetré, what are Estudiantes saying? | OneFootball

The directors of Xeneize are willing to negotiate with Estudiantes de La Plata to keep the Colombian player.

Boca’s directors are not giving up, and before the spot they acquired due to Rodrigo Battaglia’s injury expires, they have stepped on the accelerator to close the deal for Edwuin Cetré. Yes, after a lackluster performance against Platense and ahead of the classic against Racing, they are looking for a way to keep the Colombian winger.

Since the foreign player quota is at its limit (each team is allowed six, but only five can be on the match sheet), Xeneize can add either Cetré or Ádam Bareiro, the two non-Argentine players they are negotiating for.

At least from Boca’s management side, they explained to this outlet that Juan Román Riquelme stepped on the accelerator with the same terms as the last offer. However, the representatives of the former Deportivo Independiente Medellín player deny any contact. In the city of diagonals, they confirm that the proposal is exactly the same as the one previously received.

According to sources from Brandsen 805, the offer to Pincha is for a loan with an obligation to buy, for which there has never been a response from 1 y 57, where they are holding firm on the amounts previously set for the deal. They even claim that the Athletico Paranaense option is no longer on the table.

It’s worth noting that, if he is loaned out, the whole scenario will change for Juan Sebastián Verón and Estudiantes de La Plata, as they would need to renew the winger’s contract, which expires in December of this year.

If he joins, even though the medical examination did not yield favorable results, Boca will internally assess how he responds physically throughout the season. And if he maintains the consistency he has shown recently, both the club from La Plata and the Colombians will receive the negotiated money from the past few days.

Cetré’s numbers at Estudiantes

Since his arrival in January 2024, the Colombian Edwuin Cetré has become a key piece for Estudiantes de La Plata: he has played 87 matches, scored 12 goals, provided 12 assists, and won four titles (Copa de la Liga, Clausura, and two Trofeo de Campeones).
