With the spot released by the right back for his move to Huracán, Xeneize asked for conditions behind the wheel of Argentinos Juniors
Boca is moving against the clock at the close of the pass market and Juan Román Riquelme has already defined that he will go for a fourth reinforcement.
Lucas Blondel's loan move to Huracánwill give the club the possibility of joining until March 10, and Alan Lescano is the one looking to reinforce the creation zone.
In the last few hours there was a call from La Ribera to Argentinos Juniors to learn about the situation of the 24-year-old offensive midfielder, one of the figures of the La Paternal team. The interest is not new: his name had already been linked to Boca in mid-2025 and since then they have been following him closely. Now, with the need to add game and variants in attack, an offer could be formalized
.
It should be remembered that El Bicho paid 2 million dollars for 50% of Lescano's pass, the other half belongs to Gymnastics, and extended his contract until December 2029. Although no official figures were released, the floor for negotiation would be between four and five million dollars, although it remains to be seen if Boca will seek a definitive purchase or a loan
with an option. Part of Lescano's profile belongs to Gymnastics
The context of the team led by Nicolás Diez favors negotiations: it was eliminated in the Argentine Cup and in the qualifying phase of the Libertadores, so it will only compete at the local level. In this scenario, a sale would make it possible to balance the budget and adjust an initially armed squad for three
fronts.
For his part, Boca, the urgency of his signing also responds to the irregular performance at the start of 2026 and to the casualties in the creative sector, with the injuries of Carlos Palacios and Alan Velasco. So far, the club has incorporated Santiago Ascacíbar, Ángel Romero and Adam Bareiro, but the management understands that it needs a player capable of generating play
and assisting the strikers.
With the market closing next Tuesday, March 10 at 6 p.m., time is running out and in La Ribera they know that if they want to add one more piece they must move forward quickly.
