Independiente’s recent history shows that only a few players had the honor of wearing the number 10 shirt, the one that was once on the back of a certain Ricardo Enrique Bochini. Sergio Kun Agüero was one, and later in time Daniel “Rolfi” Montenegro was able to wear it. Therefore, when the Rojo leadership entrusted that number to Santiago Toloza back in August 2023, he knew that the expectations placed on him would be high.
However, his time with the Avellaneda team was without pain or glory and was marred by a series of extra-football conflicts such as his participation in the yacht party that prevented him from showing what he truly knows how to do, which is to play soccer. This is how, after sending a letter to the club demanding payment of a debt of nearly 430 thousand dollars, the skilled midfielder decided to break the link that bound him to the institution until 2026 and signed with Platense.
“Club Atlético Independiente reached an agreement for the termination of Santiago Toloza’s contract and the player no longer belongs to our institution,” was the statement published by Independiente through social networks. And although official confirmation from Calamar is still pending, the native of Morteros, Córdoba, would arrive as a free agent and agreeing to a one-year contract with an option to buy.
In this context, the midfielder put an end to his time at the Rojo, marked by ups and downs and turbulence that already anticipated the outcome of a story that never came to be. The yacht party scandal at the end of October was, without a doubt, a turning point in his career at the club: he was training outside of the professional squad for a while and no longer had the trust of coach Julio Vaccari.
Sebastián Ferreira, ready to sign his contract at Rosario Central
48 hours before his formal presentation in the Professional League against Godoy Cruz in Mendoza, Rosario Central will make official in the next few hours – if nothing unexpected happens during the medical examination – the signing of the Paraguayan Sebastián Ferreira, a 26-year-old footballer who played last season for the Houston Dynamo in the United States.
The Paraguayan attacker posted a picture on his Instagram account with his representative Diego Serrati already on his way to Argentina. After the routine examination, Sebas will sign his contract for one season to wear the Rosario Central shirt and will make himself available to the coaching staff, already projecting a probable appearance in the second match against Lanús.
With this addition, the auriazules already have three new faces, as Juan Manuel Elordi and Paraguayan Enzo Giménez had previously joined. Precisely, these last two will be part of the formal presentation to the media this Tuesday at 8 pm in the Centenario hall of the Gigante de Arroyito, a ceremony that will include the balance of Ariel Holan and the technical secretary Federico Lussenhoff.
Alex Vigo leaves Talleres to play for Sarmiento de Junín
Alex Vigo officially became a Sarmiento player and, in this way, the Junín team added the sixth incorporation in this transfer market. Vigo arrives at Sarmiento on loan from Talleres de Córdoba and in search of finding the continuity that he did not achieve in the last clubs he played for.
After making his debut in the First Division with very good performances at Colón de Santa Fe, Vigo arrived at River in 2021 in exchange for two million dollars for half of the transfer and in mid-2022, the Millionaire acquired 25% more of the card.
Vigo never managed to find his best version in Marcelo Gallardo’s team and ended up going on loan to Independiente, while later he had an experience abroad by going to Estrella Roja before arriving at Talleres. In the Cordoba team, the 25-year-old right back barely played 12 games last season and now comes to Sarmiento with the intention of giving his career a new boost.
