It wasn't a loan: River sold Jeremías Ledesma to Rosario Central and kept a percentage of his pass

Although initially there was talk of a transfer with a purchase obligation, the former millionaire goalkeeper was permanently transferred to Scoundrel
In the midst of the renovation of the squad that River faced in the last market, one of the exits was that of Jeremías “Conan” Ledesma. The goalkeeper, who was running behind Franco Armani from behind, decided to seek continuity and, at the beginning of the year, returned to Rosario Central, the club where he made his professional debut
.
Initially, the transaction was presented as a one-season loan with a purchase obligation subject to objectives. However, in the last few hours it was confirmed that this was a definitive transfer: the Scoundrel acquired 60% of the pass in exchange for 1.8 million dollars and secured the guardian for the next few seasons
. Ledesma didn't shoot in River
This figure is made up of 700,000 dollars from the basic agreement, 500,000 dollars from a trial agreement and 600,000 dollars to play friendly games between the two teams before December 31. If the match, which has not yet been confirmed, is not played, Central will still have to pay that amount.
In this way, the Millionaire will keep the remaining 40% of the token, which would allow him, in the event of a future sale, to recover part of the investment for the entirety of his pass (about 2.6 million euros), while Conan regains the shooting and prominence he had lost in the last time.
The Ledesma numbers in River
The native of Pergamino arrived in La Banda in mid-2024 from Cádiz in Spain.
In his year and a half in the Núñez team, he played just 630 minutes, spread over 7 games.
Of those matches, in 3 he went undefeated, while in the rest he received a total of 7 goals.
