Squad5 Jul 2027

63 days out for Fernando Evangelista after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Boca Juniors will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Market5 Jul 2027

Marcelo Weigandt agrees terms with Sarmiento

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Boca Juniors people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Loan watch5 Jul 2027

24 goals on loan for Adam Bareiro

18 appearances at Sportivo Trinidense and the goals keep coming. Boca Juniors are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Transfer targets5 Jul 2027

Boca Juniors make their move for Juan Giménez

$4.9M on the table at Rosario Central. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

The dugout5 Jul 2027

Milton Giménez: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Boca Juniors have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market5 Jul 2027

Juan Ramírez hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Boca Juniors can pretend not to have heard.

Market5 Jul 2027

Nahitan Nández wants more than Boca Juniors are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Market5 Jul 2027

Universidad de Chile watching Juan Barinaga

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Boca Juniors have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Nikola Vasilj signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Nikola Vasilj and Boca Juniors agree another 3 years.

Player ratings26 Apr 2027

Joaquín Piñeyro could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 8.68

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 8.68, 2 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Match21 Apr 2027

Boca Juniors through in the cup

A 3‑0 win over Talleres, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Player ratings26 Apr 2027

Juan Ramírez was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 31. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad26 Apr 2027

Nikola Vasilj keeps Boca Juniors in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

The dugout26 Apr 2027

Maximiliano Zalazar keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Boca Juniors may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Player ratings26 Apr 2027

Jhon Aponza, 21, steals the show — 7.94

Marked 7.94 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Player ratings26 Apr 2027

Age has not caught Ángel Romero yet — 8.15

At 34 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.15 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Match24 Apr 2027

Nobody wants to play Boca Juniors right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad26 Apr 2027

A falling-out at Boca Juniors

Agustín Marchesín and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad22 Feb 2027

A one-man rearguard from Nikola Vasilj

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Player ratings22 Feb 2027

Vintage Enner Valencia — 8.12

At 37 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.12, and nobody on the pitch better.

Market22 Feb 2027

Juan Ramírez hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Boca Juniors can pretend not to have heard.

The dugout22 Feb 2027

Marcelo Meli says Boca Juniors went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad22 Feb 2027

Nikola Vasilj wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Boca Juniors can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad22 Feb 2027

A falling-out at Boca Juniors

Agustín Marchesín and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match20 Feb 2027

Sebastián Villa sends Boca Juniors past Central Córdoba SdE

It finished 2‑0, and it was Sebastián Villa’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Boca Juniors.

Player ratings22 Feb 2027

Sebastián Villa in the eights

A performance of 8.15 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad22 Feb 2027

A row about effort at Boca Juniors

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ander Herrera was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

In brief

  • The dugout Somebody else is better right now than Agustín Marchesín
  • The dugout The view from the dugout
  • The dugout Ayrton Costa knocks on the manager's door

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad14 Sep 2026

Agustín Marchesín stands alone

11 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Match9 Sep 2026

Boca Juniors through in the cup

A 5‑0 win over Platense, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Adam Bareiro scores twice — 9.42

Two goals and a mark of 9.42 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

A brace, and Juan Ramírez takes the afternoon — 8.22

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Juan Ramírez provided it, and the 8.22 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market14 Sep 2026

Rodrigo Bacidalupe turns Pro Patria down

“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

No sign of nerves from Camilo Rey Domenech at 20 — 7.91

The hardest thing about being 20 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Camilo Rey Domenech did not need any: 7.91, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Match12 Sep 2026

8 unbeaten for Boca Juniors

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 8 matches without defeat is a foundation Boca Juniors did not have in the autumn.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Agustín Marchesín in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Boca Juniors this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Kevin Zenón runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 22. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

In brief
