Overview
- Racing's board ordered on Thursday that Santiago Sosa, Baltasar Rodríguez and Agustín García Basso train apart from the main squad and follow separate schedules until their transfer situations are resolved.
- Santiago Sosa's proposed move to Vasco da Gama is stalled because the Brazilian club has not paid the agreed initial advance, reported as about $2 million, and Sosa refused to play against Tigre while waiting for the transfer to be finalized.
- Baltasar Rodríguez refused to concentrate for a recent match to pressure a move, was fined by the club and reassigned to gym work and separate training as a disciplinary measure.
- Agustín García Basso remains in a long-running dispute with the club after several failed attempts to leave for teams such as San Lorenzo and Newell's, and he was also separated from the first team.
- Racing, led by Diego Milito, is weighing midfield reinforcements — names under consideration include Agustín Cardozo, Matías Galarza, Adrián Sánchez and Leonel Pérez — and the dispute creates short-term uncertainty about squad selection for the upcoming game at Argentinos.
