✈️ Paredes heads to Italy before joining Boca Juniors | OneFootball

The 31-year-old footballer is enjoying his last days of family vacation and will then proceed with the procedures to terminate his contract with AS Roma.

There's less and less time left for the dream of Boca Juniors fans to come true: Leandro Paredes will be the club's new reinforcement in the coming days. The 31-year-old footballer, who is enjoying his last days of rest, has everything in place to leave AS Roma and return to the institution where he was born sports-wise.

Paredes, who has been training these days with Paulo Dybala at the AFA's facilities, will travel to Italy soon to execute the exclusive clause of 3.5 million euros and terminate his contract with the capital team.

In Boca and the player's entourage, they expect this process to be straightforward, as he only has one year left on his contract and has already expressed his deep desire to return to Argentine football.

Once the exit clause is executed, which would be paid in four installments, Leandro Paredes will return to Argentina to settle down permanently and will be presented to the public at La Bombonera, just like Carlos Tevez in 2015 and Edinson Cavani in 2023.

Once presented, Paredes plans to undergo preseason training that will allow him to be in top condition to compete.

The signing of Leandro Paredes represents a leap in football quality for Boca Juniors, as well as the return of one of the institution's prodigal sons, since he debuted with Xeneize in 2010 at just 16 years old and returns to shine as a reference.
