Boca sign Marino Hinestroza, an «arrogant» Colombian | OneFootball

Boca kicked off the 2026 transfer window with its first confirmed signing: Marino Hinestroza, a 23-year-old Colombian winger, is leaving Atlético Nacional to join the Xeneize. The player bid farewell to his club with an emotional message: “This love story couldn’t end any other way than with a title. I will always carry you in my heart, dear Verde.”

The negotiations sped up thanks to a direct call from Juan Román Riquelme and the work of a club representative in Colombia, although there is still a small contractual detail to be resolved.

The Colombian, known for his controversial statements, is called “unhumble” because of his remark: “I’m a very ambitious kid, I’ve always been like this, ‘unhumble’, arrogant, but to win you have to be that way. We’re tired of being humble and not winning anything. I’m with the fans, I’m arrogant, because that’s what it takes.” His arrival at the club promises not only talent, but also the kind of personality that can inspire both the team and the fans.
