Borja’s agent breaks silence amid Boca rumours: “Anything is possible” | OneFootball

What began as a media flirtation threatens to become one of the first sagas of the 2026 transfer market. As Miguel Ángel Borja spends his final contractual hours with River, his future could be crossing the street. Amid growing speculation about a possible move to Boca, Juan Pablo Pachón, his agent, broke the silence, and his words, far from extinguishing the fire, fueled the speculations.

In a conversation with Olé, the manager of the Colibrí analyzed the situation of his client, who will be free to act from January 1st. Initially, he maintained a pragmatic tone when referring to the buzz generated by the potential transfer to the classic rival. “Being free, it’s normal for it to generate interest and intrigue,” he stated, acknowledging the media impact the operation would have.

Although, so far, according to Bolavip, Boca had not initiated a formal approach—prioritizing the analysis of other names—the player’s entourage seems to have a broader perspective. “The truth is that there are approaches from several major clubs on the continent, which is logical considering he is River Plate’s top scorer in the last two decades and the Colombian with the most goals in the history of the Copa Libertadores and Argentine football,” Pachón explained, highlighting the striker’s statistical credentials.

However, the phrase that resonated strongly came when asked about the possible destination the Colombian might choose. “We’ll see what happens, I believe anything is possible,” the agent remarked, leaving an open and suspenseful ending. He also emphasized what will be the determining factor for the final decision: “Miguel prioritizes being in a major club on the continent. He is prepared for great challenges and seeks a highly competitive league, as his goal is to play in the World Cup for Colombia.”

Borja’s contractual situation is a great incentive for any suitor. With his contract with River ending on December 31st, Juan Román Riquelme—should he decide to proceed—would have a clear path to negotiate directly with the player. The Mexican market also appears on the radar, with Cruz Azul being one of the clubs most interested in his services. Likewise, the willingness to dialogue shown by the representative suggests that Borja does not rule out any option, not even the one that would generate the most controversy in Argentine football.
