Luciano Gondou was targeted by Gallardo, but he also crashed /x
Although the summer transfer market has not yet started, River management has already ruled out some names (at the request of Marcelo Gallardo) because their respective clubs valued them at high amounts. After confirming that Millonario will play in the Copa Sudamericana following Boca’s elimination, the club is starting to build its 2026 squad.
With this in mind, Marcelo Gallardo has put together a folder with several names. For some of them, Stefano Di Carlo’s leadership has already started negotiations, while three others have already been excluded due to excessive contributions from their clubs.
The first of them is Kevin Amaro, a 21-year-old right-back from Uruguay who can also play as a winger and even as a winger in this area. Key player at Liverpool in his country, a club where he played in the youth team and made his debut in 2022.
“Kevin Amaro’s price is $10 million for 70%,” said José Luis Palma, president of the institution, in an interview.
In the opposite field, River ruled out Román Vega, a wish of Gallardo in recent transfer markets.
Zenit from Russia paid nine million euros for 90% of the pass. And he’s not willing to sell it for less than he paid for it, nor would he take a loan.
And the third name Gallardo mentioned was Luciano Gondou. He was sold to Zenit for 12 million euros and his situation is similar to Vega’s.
