The blow suffered by River in the Copa Libertadores, where the team was eliminated by Palmeiras, not only left sporting consequences but also accelerated decisions related to the squad's composition. The international setback served as a turning point that forces the board and the coaching staff to reconsider the team's structure.
In this context, according to journalist Hernán Castillo on the program Y Ya Lo Ve de LOVE, the Millonario will face a transfer window with numerous departures and little certainty regarding the continuity of several key players.
In his statements, Castillo mentions that five players, including a team leader, have contracts expiring and, barring an unexpected turn, will not remain in Núñez: Enzo Pérez, Milton Casco, Nacho Fernández, Gonzalo "Pity" Martínez, and Miguel Ángel Borja. Federico Gattoni is also added to this list, as he has been sidelined for some time by Marcelo Gallardo and has no chance of regaining his place.

Additionally, the journalist mentions a possible departure of Facundo Colidio. The former Tigre player could remain in Núñez only if a good offer doesn't appear.
Meanwhile, he brings up the situation of Paulo Díaz, which is currently one of the most complicated for the Millonario. The Chilean has had several poor performances and feels he is no longer indispensable for Muñeco, so he may be seeking an exit. However, his high contract, which runs until 2027, and the comfort he has found in Argentina would be the main obstacles.
Another defender who also seems to want to leave River is Fabricio Bustos. The former Independiente player, despite not having issues with Montiel or Gallardo, would leave if he receives a decent offer from a club where he could be a starter.

The future of these two players will also affect Sebastián Boselli, who could leave at the end of the year depending on which defenders stay, although this is unlikely.
Given this scenario, River's elimination from the Libertadores appears to have marked the beginning of a period of deep renewal at River, and the club will have to rebuild its squad to become competitive again both domestically and internationally.
