Hinestroza-Boca: Unexpected snag emerges, is the Colombian’s move at risk? | OneFootball

The transfer of Marino Hinestroza to Boca Juniors is currently delayed due to conflicting statements and differing reports regarding an alleged debt owed by Atlético Nacional to the player, something the Colombian club has categorically denied.

Statement and Versions from Atlético Nacional

Atlético Nacional issued an official statement and has insisted through its directors that it does not have any outstanding debts with any employee, including Marino Hinestroza.

Emphatic denial: The club states that the media reports about a debt are “unfounded” and that they strictly comply with their contractual obligations.

Negotiation stance: The club’s president, Sebastián Arango, confirmed that talks with Boca are “very advanced” but not finalized, and that they will not make public comments until the agreement is formalized. Nacional maintains that the selling price is set by the selling club, not the buyer, and that they expect Boca to meet the agreed amount.

Boca Juniors’ Interest and the Player’s Position

For their part, Boca Juniors already has a verbal agreement with the Colombian club (close to five million dollars) and with the player, who would sign for four years.

Hints to Boca: Hinestroza has shown his desire to play for Boca, posting on social media with the club’s colors.
