Independiente Rivadavia’s decision on Villa before River cup clash | OneFootball

Sebastián Villa, wearing the Independiente Rivadavia jersey, will once again face River. In the province of Córdoba, within the framework of the Copa Argentina semifinal, the forward with a past at Boca will have a very special match.

After being acquitted by the courts—where the prosecutor in the case told Radio La Red that “no substantive element or independent evidence has been provided that would allow us to reliably confirm the occurrence of the event as initially reported”—the directors of Independiente Rivadavia decided to purchase the rights of the player born in the city of Bello.

Following his stint in Bulgarian football, where he played for Beroe Stara Zagora, the player who emerged from Deportes Tolima returned to Argentina to join La Lepra. And 16 months after his arrival, president Daniel Vila made a financial effort to acquire the full rights to Villa.

The club from Mendoza owned 80% of the rights to the 29-year-old winger and acquired the remaining 20% to become the sole owners of the player, who has a contract until December 31 and is very important to the squad led tactically by Alfredo Berti.
