Agustín Rossi is being Boca’s great figure throughout the 2022 season in Argentine football and particularly in recent months. The main drawback between the Ribera club and the 27-year-old goalkeeper is the renewal of his contract, which expires on June 30, 2022.
In recent weeks it became known that Boca offered him a contract that would make him one of the highest paid players on the current squad. The idea of the soccer council led by Juan Román Riquelme is that the goalkeeper’s contract is until 2027, that is, they are offering him a renewal for almost 4 seasons. A great contract taking into account the numbers that are handled in Argentine soccer due to the situation in the country.
After the disputes, the soccer council decided to end the negotiations with the goalkeeper and possible rumors about an exit began to circulate, the possibility of Flamengo was mentioned. But thanks to the support of the fans, who applaud him every time he steps on the lawn of the Bombonera, the directors decided to reopen the negotiations with the aim of renewing it.
After the important victory in the Superclásico against River, which included a great save 7 minutes into the first half, Juan Román Riquelme commented that the offer is still on the table and is available to the player to sign the renewal that even, if the parties reach an agreement, it can be closed this week.
Rossi has been having a very good performance, particularly in the last two seasons. He was a key player in the team’s major wins thanks to his skill on penalties. With Xeneize, he has saved 16 penalties (7 in regular time and 9 in penalty shootouts) of the 54 that were shot at him (13 in regular time and 41 in definitions).
The future of the goalkeeper is a real unknown so far and to think about the team for the 2023 season that will have a new participation in the Copa Conmebol Libertadores.
