UEFA Champions League
Fiorentina has set its sights on Cristian Medina, the promising midfielder from Boca Juniors, as part of its strategy to reinforce its squad. Following Boca's recent elimination in the Sudamericana Cup against Cruzeiro, the interest from the Italian side has added more tension to the Argentine club, which has already rejected an initial offer of 11 million dollars for the player.
This figure is well below the 20 million that Boca is aiming for to let go of one of its young stars. The club's stance is firm: they will not accept any proposal below the established release clause.
Medina, on Fiorentina's radar
Medina's case is not isolated, as Boca recently turned down a similar offer from Fenerbahçe, showing the club's determination to retain its key talents. However, the possibility of Fiorentina coming back with an improved offer remains, which could put Boca's Football Council in a difficult position.
From Medina's circle, it is considered that this could be the right moment to make the leap to Europe, especially if Fiorentina manages to qualify for the Conference League, a scenario that could be appealing to the young midfielder. Meanwhile, Boca, which already experienced the departure of Equi Fernández to Saudi Arabia and the transfer of Aaron Anselmino to Chelsea, faces the prospect of losing another of its stars in this transfer window.
