Chelsea is evaluating executing the €12.8 million release clause for the 19-year-old forward Tomás Aranda to finalize his transfer from Boca Juniors in January 2027. The Argentine would be a new Chelsea signing with the future in mind.

According to Crack Deportivo, the BlueCo consortium — owner of the London-based club and RC Strasbourg — is leading the efforts to acquire the player's rights in the winter transfer market and to loan him to French football during the latter part of the season.

🚨 Chelsea are weighing up an early-2027 move worth as much as €12.8M for Boca Juniors youngster Tomás Aranda.

Tomás Aranda's Performance at Boca Juniors and BlueCo's Plan

The 19-year-old attacking midfielder joined Boca Juniors in January 2026 and has a contract until December 31, 2029. In the 2025-2026 season, Aranda played in 23 matches in local tournaments, scoring 2 goals and providing 3 assists. These performances raised his value on Transfermarkt to €9.00 million and earned him a cap with the Argentine national team under Lionel Scaloni.

Chelsea's executives' strategy involves fully paying the €12.8 million set in his release clause. Afterwards, the player would continue adapting in Europe wearing RC Strasbourg's jersey in Ligue 1 before joining Stamford Bridge's squad.

Competition from Arsenal and Other European Clubs in the Bid

Chelsea is not the only club looking to secure the youngster's transfer. Arsenal also plans a similar strategy for the winter market, while Inter Milan, Aston Villa, Parma, Fiorentina, and Como have scouts in Argentina monitoring his progress weekly.

On the other hand, Boca Juniors' board insists on the immediate payment of the clause to authorize the player's departure in January. The lack of negotiation room forces English clubs to expedite financial guarantees.

Chelsea's analysts will attend Boca Juniors' matches in the Argentine tournament during October and November 2026. If the technical reports remain favorable, Chelsea's board will formally notify Boca Juniors of the €12.8 million activation in the first weeks of December 2026.
