River Plate Not only is it working on strengthening the squad for the second half of the year, but it is also looking for a destination for the players with less training so that they do not lose their contribution and the coach.

On that train, the club awaits the officialization of the loan Agustín Palavecino to Necaxa in Mexico, the first exit from the market: it will be for one year, with a charge and with a purchase option. It is worth remembering that the Band invested a total of 3.5 million dollars for 65 percent of its token (the rest of the pass is distributed between Deportivo Cali of Colombia and Platense). His relationship with the Núñez entity applies until December 31, 2025.
And in the last hours the one who reached an agreement to leave is Hector David Martinez. The 26-year-old defender arranged to continue his career in Pumas of Mexico, in an operation that could lead to his final farewell. Everything indicates that he will travel next week to sign their bond, once he returns from his break.
The transfer with charge is for 12 months, although with a purchase obligation of three million dollars, which will be activated if you complete a certain number of matches in the Aztec club.

His only appearance as a starter so far in 2024 occurred in the Argentine Cup match against Temperley, in which those led by Demichelis ended up being eliminated in the penalty shootout. In the last match against Deportivo Riestra (0-2 in Bajo Flores), he was part of the substitute bench.
At the back, the duo most used by the former Bayern Munich manager was Leandro González Pirez and Paulo Díaz. Sebastián Boselli appeared as an alternative. Further back, Ramiro Funes Mori, with his injuries on his back, and the youth Daniel Zabala came to be ahead of Martínez.
The nationalized Paraguayan center, which managed to take off in Defense and Justice (a fact that called Marcelo Gallardo to request the repurchase of a percentage of its token); and whose level reached such a peak that the leadership even rejected an offer of nine million dollars for his record, he did not manage to return to the best version of himself as a result of physical problems. Now he will bid to get it in Mexico.
