Boca Juniors will have to forget, at least for now, about the idea of repatriating Leandro Paredes. The Argentine midfielder, who seemed to be on the xeneize team's radar for a homecoming, has completely changed his outlook at Roma following the arrival of Claudio Ranieri to the bench.

The midfielder, whose contract with the Italian team expires on June 30, has gone from being a player with an uncertain future to becoming a key piece for the new coach, as reported in 'Calciomercato'. This unexpected twist has led the Roman leadership to restart negotiations to extend his contract, and everything indicates that the agreement is nearly finalized. Paredes would sign an extension for one more season, until 2026, with an option to extend it until 2027.

A tough blow for Boca, who was hoping to sign him for free

This outcome has been a blow to Boca Juniors, who had high hopes of having the midfielder trained in their ranks once again. However, Roma has acted swiftly to ensure his continuity, distancing him from any possibility of returning to Argentina in the short term.

Paredes, who returned to the Italian capital in 2023 from PSG for just 2.5 million euros, has managed to increase his value with his performance this season. With his renewal practically sealed, Boca will have to continue waiting for a future opportunity to have their former player back, whose present is more linked than ever to the Giallorossi team.
