Galoppo set to be used in swap deal as São Paulo target Enzo Díaz | OneFootball

Giuliano Galoppo is set to be used as a bargaining chip by São Paulo's management so that the club can permanently sign Argentine Enzo Díaz and Chilean Gonzalo Tapia.

Galoppo was loaned to River Plate at the beginning of the year, and his contract with the Argentine club ends in December 2025. In return, Enzo Díaz, who belongs to the Millonarios, arrived at Morumbi with a loan also valid until the end of the current season.

Both have a purchase option set in case of meeting certain goals. Enzo Díaz has been a regular starter at left-back for São Paulo, while Giuliano Galoppo has alternated between starting and coming off the bench throughout the season.

If confirmed, the exchange is considered very positive for São Paulo, as Galoppo never managed to establish himself in the tricolor team, even though he arrived in Brazil as one of the great promises of Argentine football.

Enzo Díaz, on the other hand, has won everyone over at São Paulo, not only for his consistent performances but also for the fighting spirit he has shown in games and training, earning him the nickname "tractor" from his teammates.

It is worth noting that the left-back position was one of the major deficiencies in São Paulo's squad before Enzo Díaz arrived. Not even the presence of Wendell, who played in the last Copa América with the Brazilian National Team and was personally recruited by president Julio Casares, could surpass the competition from the Argentine.

It remains to be seen if River Plate will agree to permanently exchange Enzo Díaz for Giuliano Galoppo. São Paulo is going through a severe financial crisis and will not invest large sums in reinforcements. If they manage to complete this transaction, the tricolor management considers it a great deal.
