It is clear that Racing seeks, at the request of Fernando Gagoanother steering wheel that can perform in various positions. The great obsession that the coach of the Academy has is Agustín Almendra. For the Boca player there are still talks and even the intention of the leaders to make an economic effort if Juan Román Riquelme gives in to his iron stance of not reinforcing rival teams. In this context, in the last hours the name of Domingo Blanco sounded again through the halls of Racing. He appears, a priori, as a distant and difficult alternative to Almendra, but by making the attempt, nothing will be lost.
As confirmed to Racing de Alma, the club’s small table is keen to make an offer to Domingo Blanco, who at the end of the month ends his contract with Rojo and will not renew it. In fact, he no longer trains with the squad. They know, however, the chances are their casualties. A month ago, from the player’s environment they did not see a possible exit to the Academy. Of course this is football and everything can change from one day to the next. Beyond the personal issues that mean changing paths, the former Defense and Justice are also followed by Boca and Panathinaikos from Greece. Complicated without a doubt…
The top priority, as this portal reported, continues to be Agustín Almendra. The leadership intends to offer a loan with a purchase option for half of the flyer’s token. The player only has one more year left on his contract and should renew with Xeneize before being able to leave on loan. The issue of Almendra’s contract, however, can also play in favor of Racing. As it expires in June 2023, Boca no longer has as much room for maneuver and the player’s wishes weigh much more than if he had a long contract ahead of him. Thus, he continues to be Racing’s favorite and Domingo Blanco an alternative.
In this context, Agustín Almendra himself repeated his desire to reach the Academy for two compelling reasons. The first is that he has a relationship with Fernando Gago, with whom he shared a team and identifies with the way he plays. The second is that Almendra is a fan of Racing and on the networks there are even photos circulating with the shirt of the beloved Academy.
