Official medical update: Boca confirm injury to first-team regular | OneFootball

Through a medical report, Boca Juniors confirmed the injury of a player who has been a starter in the team and will be out for a considerable time in the final stretch of the 2025 Clausura Tournament. It is Alan Velasco, who will be unable to play for 4 to 6 weeks for the team led by Claudio Úbeda.

Although his injury was known on Thursday and was reported on this portal, the club has now issued a statement confirming the news amidst the sorrow over the death and wake of Miguel Ángel Russo.

The attacking midfielder was seen at La Bombonera, where the remains of Boca's coach were laid to rest, with a brace on his right leg to immobilize his knee. Specifically, Alan Velasco suffered a strain of the internal lateral ligament of the right knee, and according to the doctors' estimates, his recovery will take 4 to 6 weeks.

During this period, the Xeneize will play the last matches of the regular phase of the Clausura Tournament and will not be able to count on the former Dallas FC player. It is expected that his replacement will be Carlos Palacios, who held that position before the Chilean's injury.

The next match of Boca

Due to the suspension of the match against Barras Central because of Russo's death, Boca will play again on Saturday against Belgrano. The match against El Guapo will be rescheduled in the coming days.

The Xeneize will play again after Russo's death.

The match against the Cordoban team will take place this Saturday, October 18, starting at 6 PM at the Alberto J. Armando stadium.
