Boca seal Saracchi loan exit, eye Taborda sale | OneFootball

Boca managed to secure the one-year loan of Uruguayan defender Marcelo Saracchi to Celtic in Scotland and is close to selling midfielder Vicente Taborda, on loan to Platense, to Panathinaikos in Greece.

The transfer market is coming to an end, which will be on August 31, and the 'Xeneize' agreed to the one-year loan of Uruguayan defender Saracchi to Celtic in Scotland. The operation includes a charge of $100,000 and no purchase option.

The former River player was not being considered by coach Miguel Ángel Russo for this second part of the year and his last match had been against Bayern Munich in the second round of Group C of the FIFA Club World Cup.

In this context, the Uruguayan sought to leave the club and was close to joining Independiente, but the operation was canceled until the appearance of Celtic in Scotland. Saracchi will undergo a medical examination in London and will process his visa on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Taborda is close to emigrating to Panathinaikos in Greece. The midfielder had a great first semester at Platense, where he was champion of Argentine football, and thanks to this performance, the European club presented an offer to Boca, the owner of his pass, for an amount close to 4.5 million euros for 80% of the card.

The 'Xeneize' would retain 20% of the midfielder's pass, who is 24 years old, and the good relationship between Platense and Boca would facilitate the negotiations.
