Marcos Rojo, 35, closed his cycle at Boca Juniors after terminating by mutual agreement his contract, which was valid until December. With an increasingly reduced role in the squad and growing tensions with the coaching staff and leadership, the defender ended his time as captain and leader of the club.
In a matter of hours, Racing Club accelerated the process: the player underwent a medical examination and signed a contract with the Academy. The link is for productivity, a modality designed to compensate for his recent irregular history of injuries and suspensions.
Sebastián Saja, sports director, described Rojo’s arrival as “a market opportunity” and highlighted his experience, career and leadership capacity, qualities that he considers fundamental for the Copa Libertadores. As he revealed, what surprised him most was the player’s predisposition: “I want to play the Libertadores with Racing”.
The leadership seeks to register him for the round of 16 against Peñarol. Although the local pass book has already closed, the regulations allow provisional registration for international tournaments until Monday at noon. However, Rojo will not be able to play in the Clausura Tournament of the Professional League because he was free after the market closed, but he will be eligible for the Argentine Cup and the Libertadores.
In Boca, Rojo accumulated 118 games, 9 goals and three titles, but his time was also marked by injuries and sanctions. In Racing, he arrives as a reinforcement of the hierarchy: his international experience and his commanding voice could be key in a team that seeks to consolidate itself as a protagonist on the continental level.
