The 'Xeneize' could resume negotiations with the AS Roma midfielder for his return to the club ahead of the FIFA Club World the hiring of Miguel Ángel Russo is being decided, with the match against Atlético Tucumán in the 2025 Copa Argentina on the horizon, Boca Juniors are once again excited about the possible return of Leandro Paredes, who would be a luxury reinforcement for the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States. This Sunday, June 1st, a small transfer window opens for the Club World Cup and Boca have the chance to resume negotiations with 30-year-old Paredes, who has a clause at AS Roma allowing him to play for the club where he was born. This clause would allow him to sign for Boca Juniors in exchange for 3.5 million dollars, an amount that Juan Román Riquelme could pay to unlock his departure and have him available for the debut against Benfica in Miami. PAREDES Y SU VUELTA: QUÉ TIENE QUE PASAR PARA QUE SE CONCRETE AHORA🔵 El sueño del regreso del Leandro Paredes a Boca sigue vigente. Sin embargo, no es del todo sencillo. Atentos a lo que cuenta @EmilianoRaddi:🟡 Lo primero que hay que saber es que Boca ya puede ejecutar la… — Planeta Boca Juniors (@PlanetaBoca) May 28, 2025 However, Paredes and Riquelme will have to reach an agreement on the contract, a significant issue that prevented his return to Boca from being finalized at the beginning of the year. Leandro Paredes has a contract with AS Roma until mid-2026. After the departure of Claudio Ranieri, and the false rumors about Jürgen Klopp's arrival, the capital club is looking for a new coach. In the last two Serie A matches, Paredes started and scored a goal in each of these games (against AC Milan and Torino), which shows his great form. Another important factor is that AS Roma finished sixth in Serie A and would be qualifying for the UEFA Europa League. However, if Inter defeat PSG in Munich this Saturday, Roma would enter the next edition of the UEFA Champions League. "They are going to make a call to find out about his particular situation in Rome. He is a player who has the doors open and they want to see if they can reach an agreement," said journalist Leandro Aguilera on TyC Sports. 📸 Paolo Bruno - 2025 Getty Images

Russo will return as Boca Juniors coach, club spokesman confirms
BUENOS AIRES - Miguel Angel Russo is set to return as coach of Boca Juniors ahead of the Club World Cup, a club spokesman confirmed on Monday. Russo will take the reins for his third stint with the Argentine giants, having previously coached the team in 2007 and 2020-2021, leading them to win four titles, including the Copa Libertadores. After leaving Boca, the experienced 69-year-old coach spent time at Rosario Central and most recently at San Lorenzo, with whom he suffered elimination from the Argentine league semi-finals on Sunday. "Miguel and I have come to an agreement. All he has to do now is officially sever his ties with San Lorenzo, which should be easy for him," the spokesman told Reuters, declining to offer further details. Russo will replace Fernando Gago, who was sacked last month after Boca lost the Argentine Superclasico against arch-rivals River Plate and had a poor run including getting knocked out of the Libertadores in the preliminary round. Boca start their Club World Cup campaign on June 16 in the United States, where they will compete in Group C against Bayern Munich, Benfica and Auckland City.
