Fernando Gago, current strategist of Boca Juniors, is clear that the main goal for the upcoming season is to conquer the Copa Conmebol Libertadores. With that goal in mind, the coach has presented the Xeneize board with a detailed list of players he considers essential to reinforce the squad and make the necessary leap in quality in 2024.
Among the standout names are defenders like Valentín Gómez, a promising young talent from Vélez Sarsfield, and Gonzalo Piovi, an experienced center back from Cruz Azul, both seen as key players to strengthen the team's defense. Additionally, Gago has set his sights on midfielders with different profiles. Aníbal Moreno from Racing Club stands out for his ability in containment, while Matías Rojas, an attacking midfielder from Inter Miami, would bring creativity and imbalance in the final third.
Another priority is Rodrigo Battaglia, a player from Atlético Mineiro with international football experience, who shines for his versatility in midfield. Likewise, Santiago Ascacíbar from Estudiantes de La Plata, and Felipe Loyola, a young Chilean midfielder from Independiente, complete the list with a focus on ensuring alternatives in the midfield area.
Boca Juniors aims to build a luxury squad
The Boca Juniors board will need to assess the economic and contractual possibilities of these signings, as some, like Rojas, are close to becoming free agents, while others have longer ties to their current clubs.
With this planning, Fernando Gago seeks to build a competitive and balanced team to face both the local tournament and the coveted Libertadores, a trophy the club has not won since 2007 and has become an obsession for the Xeneizes. The transfer window looms crucial in determining the success of this ambitious sports project.
