Overview

  • Necaxa has announced three new signings—Raúl Sánchez, Cristian Calderón and Franco Rossano—to strengthen the squad after José Paradela’s exit to Cruz Azul.
  • Fernando Gago described Cavani reports as “pure rumors” and said he is pleased with the current roster while remaining open to potential market moves.
  • Speculation around Cavani’s arrival was stoked by Gago’s previous tenure as his coach at Boca Juniors, though no formal approach has been initiated.
  • Cavani’s agent, Walter Guglielmone, confirmed the 38-year-old striker will remain with Boca Juniors until his December contract expires unless president Juan Román Riquelme requests otherwise.
  • The ongoing transfer window runs through August, giving Necaxa further time to pursue reinforcements beyond its current acquisitions ahead of the Apertura 2025.
