Santos snap up long-time Boca target, Di Cesare set to stay at Racing | OneFootball

The Brazilian team did not increase the offer for the defender from the Academy and took Adonis Frías, who at one point was close to Xeneize.

After Racing rejected an offer for Marco Di Cesare, Neymar's Santos did not raise the numbers of a new proposal and turned its course for another Argentine central defender. In this way, the departure of the former Argentinos Juniors cools down, who would stay, for now, a little longer in Avellaneda.

In crisis and with Juan Pablo Vojvoda as the new DT, Peixe is going for Adonis Frías. The defender with a past in Los Andes and Defense and Justice will leave the Lion of Mexico and will arrive in Paulista lands in exchange for 4 million dollars, the same amount that had been offered for 70% of the pass of the player from the Avellaneda club, which demanded 6,500,000.

With three days left for the transfer market to end, it seems that the future of Di Cesare will continue to be sky blue and white and he will have to compete for the position with the new reinforcement Franco Pardo, author of the goal that qualified Racing to the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores 2025.

In August 2022, Frías was close to joining Boca Juniors, a team for which he publicly declared to be a fan, but his transfer was frustrated due to the economic demands of the Falcon of Varela.

"I'm very angry, I'm waiting for someone to give me an explanation of what happened", the defender expressed in the middle of the negotiation between Defense and Boca, which finally did not reach a good port. The Falcon demanded two million dollars for the defender, Boca offered up to 1.5 million of the US currency and there was no approach. In addition, those from Varela wanted to have him until the end of 2022. Finally, in January 2023 he was bought by León in exchange for four million dollars and he stayed there until this arrival at Neymar's Santos.
