“I’m going on a holiday like everyone else. I feel very comfortable here. But it doesn’t depend on me. If an offer arrives that is good for the club and they tell me I have to leave, I’ll have to go”. The words correspond to Carlos Alcaraz, the footballer who gave Racing their last title just over two months ago in the Champions Trophy against Boca, but this Monday they take on another meaning: Southampton -the last in the Premier League- have agreed to buy it for 14 million euros (plus an extra million bonus), making it the second most important in the club’s historybehind Lautaro Martinez to Inter Italy.

That day when they told him he had to leave, he arrived: “Charly” was in the gym during the morning training of the “Academy” team, they approached him and informed him that he had to remove his things because, in a few hours, he had to get on a plane to head for the extreme south of the United Kingdom, in a city famous for its port, the same from which the Titanic departed on its tragic maiden voyage.

Alcaraz’s was ahead Matias Zaracho ($6 million for 50% of the token in 2020 to Atlético Mineiro of Brazil), Roger Martinez ($10 million to China’s Jiangsu Suning) e Franco Zuculini ($6.7 million to Hoffenheim in Germany), among the list of notable player sales to emerge from the Tita Mattiussi estate in recent years.
