The situation of Marcos Rojo, Marcelo Saracchi, and Cristian Lema at Boca has reached a breaking point. The three footballers were separated from the professional squad by decision of Miguel Ángel Russo without even access to the locker room with the rest of their teammates.

The measure taken by the coaching staff of the Xeneize, with the support of the Football Council, came after the clash of the defender from La Plata with Russo after the defeat against Huracán in the Clausura Tournament. This Tuesday, along with the Uruguayan footballer and the former Newell's, they tried to be part of the technical talk, but only those players who were called up for that match were allowed entry.

This caused a bad reaction from the former captain of Xeneize who left Ezeiza without finishing the training. The next day, he was informed that he was not allowed to enter the locker room and had to train separately from the rest of his teammates under the supervision of a lower division physical trainer.

What is the contractual situation of Rojo, Saracchi, and Lema at Boca

In this way, none of the three players will be considered by Miguel Ángel Russo during his stay in charge of Xeneize. For their part, the management seeks to give them an exit before their contract ends, while the players are running out of options.

  1. Marcos Rojo: has a contract in force until December 2025. His departure will not be easy, but the management is considering opening a channel of dialogue to agree on the termination. One of the strong options for his future is a return to Estudiantes, although he must first reconcile with the Pincha fans.

Rojo is close to ending his cycle at Xeneize.

  1. Cristian Lema: has a link with the club until the end of this year. The defender was the only one who proposed an exit with the pass in his power, but Xeneize rejected the offer and then presented a counteroffer that also did not prosper. His future is a mystery, considering that there are no interested teams.
  2. Marcelo Saracchi: unlike the previous ones mentioned, the Uruguayan has a contract with the institution of La Ribera until December 2027. That's why the club intends to sell him or loan him with an obligation to buy. Independiente showed interest in hiring him, but the negotiations did not prosper.
