As River faces the final stretch of the semester between the Copa Sudamericana and the Apertura Tournament, Eduardo Coudet has already started planning the next pass market.
In that sense, the millionaire coach added a new name to the list of favorites for the second half of the year: Agustín Canobbio.As it transpired, in the last few hours Chacho contacted Fluminense's Uruguayan striker personally to express his interest in adding him as a reinforcement. For now, it was a first contact, a kind of survey to know the player's predisposition before moving forward in formal negotiations
.Beyond the call, the possible arrival of the charrúa does not seem easy. Canobbio has a contract with the Brazilian club until December 2028 and was acquired in early 2025 for a figure close to 6 million dollars, so in Rio de Janeiro they would only consider a sale for a higher amount. Added to that is their high salary, which represents another obstacle for any South American team
