Boca Juniors rejects Atlanta United offer for Milton Delgado
Boca Juniors has rejected a transfer offer from Atlanta United for midfielder Milton Delgado. The MLS club's proposal, reportedly exceeding $10 million, was deemed insufficient by the Argentine club's management, as the player's release clause is set at $15 million (with some reports suggesting it could reach up to $25 million due to recent increases).
Delgado, a standout performer for both club and the Argentina U-20 national team, remains a high priority for manager Rodolfo Arruabarrena. The player's recent form earned him praise from teammate Leandro Paredes, who described him as a humble player with a "great future."
In addition to the rejected Atlanta United bid, Italian club Como 1907 is reportedly analyzing a potential offer to secure the 20-year-old. Other international interest has been noted from clubs including Trabzonspor, Benfica, and several English Premier League sides such as Chelsea and Bournemouth following Delgado's performance at the U-20 World Cup.
