Overview

• Panathinaikos is negotiating a US$4.5 million purchase of 80% of Vicente Taborda’s rights, with Boca retaining 20% and Platense due 10%.
• The midfielder remains on loan at Platense, where he helped win the Apertura, and his move would represent immediate revenue with future sell-on upside.
• Celtic is advancing a loan for Marcelo Saracchi that includes a purchase option reported near €2 million, with final figures still under discussion.
• Boca’s leadership is pushing for a higher buy-option valuation for Saracchi and could agree to a loan without option if terms do not improve.
• Saracchi has been training away from the first team under Miguel Ángel Russo, and his exit would open a senior roster slot as Boca reshapes its squad.
