The fans on social media are overbearing: they want the Paraguayan matías rojas continue beyond July, when the contract expires. But the 27-year-old left-footed midfielder’s strong performances prompted many clubs to turn to him. And they offer you millions and millions of dollars, that’s why it is assumed that Racing will not reach it with the will. The feeling they have in the Avellaneda club is that it will be impossible to keep him until December.

The intention of the president Victor White and the rest of the leaders must meet again with Rojas agents to weigh the possibilities. This will happen after the representatives have broken off negotiations with the Brazilian teams. Botafogo had been the one that hurt: He offered him a fixed sum plus a three-year contract. But the good thing for Racing is that they haven’t found an agreement on the numbers. Between this Wednesday evening and Thursday there would be a new meeting to bring the distances closer.

In Rojas from the United Arab Emirates offered him about 11 million dollars for three seasons. The idea of ​​the Paraguayan and his advisors is to win a close figure but in a more competitive league to stay on the radar of the Paraguayan national team. From Botafogo they warned that this could not be offered, the Brazilian media explained.

In the meantime, Rojas keeps his head in racing, where he accumulates 116 games, 21 goals and 12 assists. The footballer worked under Fernando Gago after the FIFA friendlies window. It is worth mentioning that the steering wheel scored a goal in Paraguay’s 3-2 loss to Chile, in which he played 78 minutes. The other return was goalkeeper Gabriel Arias, who remained on the bench for the Chilean side. Both will start against Huracán on Saturday night.

The novelty of the stasis in the negotiations with Botafogo is good news for the Academy because the transfer market in Brazil closes in the first week of April. One possibility, if an agreement had been reached between the player and the club, was to compensate Racing financially to free him before June. Ditto, R.Ojas has already warned that it intends to close the connection in the best possible way; i.e. play until the last day.

The loss of Rojas would be hard for Racing because he is the most destabilizing player in the squad. In addition, the other who was going through a great present, Johan Carbonero, will have 6 months to recover from a ligament injury in his right knee.
