Villa breaks silence after River, hints at Boca return | OneFootball

The forward from Independiente Rivadavia spoke after his team's draw against River in Mendoza.

The name Sebastián Villa once again took center stage in Argentine football, although not for his performance against River Plate in Mendoza. In recent hours, rumors have grown about a possible return to Boca Juniors, and the forward himself addressed the topic after the draw with Independiente Rivadavia.

"I don't talk about that," he initially responded sharply when asked about the possibility of returning to the Xeneize. He then added: "Now I am 100% focused on Independiente Rivadavia, my agent handles those things."

The Colombian attacker hinted that there is a promise of sale from the management of the Lepra mendocina for the next market. "I will give my all for the club. Then we will see in the middle of the year what might happen," he stated, leaving the door open for a possible departure in June.

The rumors linking him back to Boca are related to the imminent departure of Lucas Blondel to Huracán, a move that would free up a spot to incorporate outside the Professional League's regulatory period.

However, from Independiente Rivadavia, they assure that there have been no formal contacts from the management led by Juan Román Riquelme to negotiate for the forward. Meanwhile, Villa remains focused on the present of the Mendoza team, although the market is already starting to move quietly.
