Vicente Taborda heads to Europe: set to play for Panathinaikos in Greece | OneFootball

The departure of Vicente Taborda to European football has been confirmed. The 24-year-old midfielder, who was currently on loan at Platense from Boca, will continue his career at Panathinaikos in Greece, which will pay 5 million dollars for 80% of his transfer rights.

The negotiation involved all parties with interests in the player's transfer, as Boca, the owner of the rights, will retain 20% of a future sale, while Platense, thanks to an agreement signed in the loan until December 2025, will receive 10% of the current transfer amount for showcase rights.

Thus, the "Xeneize" will receive 4.5 million dollars, while the "Calamar" will pocket 500,000 dollars.

Taborda had already expressed his desire to make the leap to Europe and, after an agreement between the clubs, it was decided to end the loan early so he could move in this transfer window.

The midfielder arrives at Panathinaikos at a great moment in his career, after establishing himself as a key player in the Vicente López team, with which he won the 2025 Apertura Tournament, the first First Division title in the club's history.

During his two stints at Platense, Taborda played 86 matches, scoring 11 goals and providing 4 assists, being one of the team's leaders. At Boca, however, he had less playing time: only 17 official matches, with 631 minutes on the field and no direct goal contributions.

His last appearance in the blue and gold jersey was in the 2023 Copa Libertadores final against Fluminense, before establishing himself at Platense and now fulfilling his European dream.
