The 21-year-old Argentine midfielder, a former River Plate player, has become the protagonist of the European winter transfer market together with the English midfielder Jude Bellingham.

In this sense, the Record newspaper reported on the cover that Benfica rejected the sensational figure of 100 million last Wednesday.
The news portal specifies that Rui Costa, one of the main leaders of the institute “is firm in not selling below the 120 million euro of his clause”, but also assures that “sharks are close”.
