River Plate has begun to make decisive moves to strengthen its squad for the upcoming Club World Cup. The Argentine team's priority is to secure the return of Guido Rodríguez, a midfielder from West Ham United, whom they aim to make one of the team's key players at the World Cup event to be held in the United States between June and July 2025. The clear intention is to surround themselves with high-caliber players to compete head-to-head against giants of international football.

The return of the midfielder, a World Cup champion with Argentina in Qatar 2022, is a specific request from coach Marcelo Gallardo, who aims to enhance the midfield with experience, tactical organization, and leadership. Rodríguez, who emerged from River's youth academy and had a brief stint in the first team in his early career, views returning to Núñez favorably, especially considering the opportunity to compete in a global tournament with the club that nurtured him.

River Plate Wants to Sign Guido Rodríguez

His time in England has not met expectations. After leaving Betis, the midfielder joined West Ham, but his involvement diminished with a change of manager. Since January, he has had scarce playing time, paving the way for an early exit. River is aware of this and is advancing in negotiations, willing to invest in part of his sporting rights.

Although the agreement is not yet finalized, it is progressing well. The player's willingness and River's urgency to bolster for the international challenge indicate that Guido Rodríguez's return is not just a wish but a matter of time.
