Nacional of Uruguay withdrew from the friendly match they were going to play against Boca. Now the Xeneize management is looking for another team so that the squad can have two preparation matches ahead of the season starting at the end of the month.
While the team is undergoing preseason training under Claudio Úbeda's orders at the Ezeiza facility, the management will have to find another club to play the second friendly they plan to hold on Sunday, January 18.
El Bolso decided to withdraw from the invitation made by the Xeneize to play a friendly match in preparation for the next season. The match was going to be held on the 18th at the Único de San Nicolás stadium.

The Xeneize is doing preseason in Ezeiza.
Now, the Boca directors, led by Juan Román Riquelme and Marcelo Delgado, will decide whom they will face. One of the potential teams is Olimpia from Paraguay.
It should be remembered that the Ribera team has already confirmed the first friendly match, which will be on Wednesday, January 14, against Millonarios from Colombia at La Bombonera. It will be a perfect excuse to honor Miguel Ángel Russo, and it will be so because a trophy bearing the name of the coach who managed both teams will be at stake.
The club defined the future of several players who had returned from their loans and will again be loaned out in this transfer market. Lucas Brochero will continue his career for a year at San Miguel. Gabriel Aranda will join Racing de Córdoba, while Agustín Obando will play at Atlético Rafaela.

Riquelme is working in the transfer market.
On the other hand, Gabriel Vega was transferred on loan to Nueva Chicago for a year, with a purchase option for 50% of his pass. Nahuel Genez will join Patronato for 12 months without a purchase option, similar to Tomás Díaz, who will wear the Los Andes jersey.
