After releasing the quota of foreigners due to the loan of Hurtado, Riquelme goes for the Chilean striker from Colo Colo.
Boca has just finalized the departure of Venezuelan Jan Hurtado, who will continue his career on loan at Goianiense in Brazil, and by freeing up space, Juan Román Riquelme has decided to return to the fray for Chilean Carlos Palacios.
The 23-year-old striker, who is currently at Colo Colo in Chile, was already sought by the Xeneize in the last transfer market. According to reports This time they will not be left wanting and Boca would be willing to put up the 4.5 million dollars of his exit clausealthough they will first try to negotiate for a smaller amount and perhaps not 100 percent of your token.
Palacios is coming off a good first half of the year with Cacique, which is managed by Jorge Almirón and could be River’s rival in the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. So far this year he has scored six goals and given four assists in 24 games. Previously, the right winger played for Unión Española, Inter de Porto Alegre and Vasco da Gama.
The Argentines are also negotiating for Javier Correa, a striker for Estudiantes, and this could play in Boca’s favour when they decide to release Palacios.
