Overview

• Rojo is eligible for the Copa Argentina but was not named in Racing's starting XI against River in Rosario, with Gustavo Costas keeping the Pardo–Colombo pairing.
• He remains available to come off the bench, according to TN, as Racing plays River in the quarterfinals of the Copa Argentina.
• El Litoral reports an injured teammate has created a potential opening on Racing’s Clausura list, a move that would allow Rojo to be registered for the remainder of the league.
• The club has not confirmed the injured player's identity, though reporting points to Matías Zaracho, who did not travel and has been managing recurring physical issues.
• Rojo had been limited to Copa Libertadores and Copa Argentina due to a late inscription for the Clausura, and Costas is assessing defensive options while Luciano Vietto also stayed behind and faces an uncertain future.
