These are busy days for Rafael Santos I deleted, although it is not precisely the competition.
The Colombian is negotiating with River Plate the continuity of a contract that expires next June, while analyzing other offers and even aims to release quota of foreigner, if this helps to unlock the situation.
In the first point, at this point the player is legally entitled to hear offers. The negotiations, in any case, go through Atletico Madrid, as the Argentines own 50 percent of the rights and the Spaniards the other half.
And in the face of this scenario, the first rumors are coming from Brazil. According to journalist Mauro Sant Anna, the attacker was offered to Flamengo, one of the greats of this country and who might need an attacker of his characteristics. It is a fact that one would have to meet one of two conditions: wait for your current contract to end or pay the $ 30 million clause. The latter option does not seem viable for Brazilians or for virtually any other contender, given the conditions of market crisis.
That is why the option that is urgent for River, under pain of losing his investment, is to convince him to stay via bonuses, salary improvement and other benefits. And at this point another edge arises: the condition of foreign player.
According to the newspaper Olé, I erased and Nicolau de la Cruz are waiting for the procedure of Argentine nationality but they have a difficulty, also pressured by the pandemic: the book of passes closes the 11 of February and there will be judicial vacancy until the 31 of January, the which means time is very short and they might not release quotas from foreigners this season. This would bring economic benefits to the Colombian in a possible renewal.
That’s how things are, the future of Erase seems tied to River, but with more than one condition. Someone could ‘fish in murky water’ if he comes up with a good prize, which is what the curiously called ‘millionaire’ team doesn’t have today.
