Frank Fabra holds last training session at Boca Juniors

Frank Fabra holds last training session at Boca Juniors

Colombian left-back Frank Fabra held his last training session with Boca Juniors on Tuesday, bidding farewell to his teammates and coaching staff despite his contract with the club running until December 31, 2025. However, his poor performance in recent years strained his relationship with the 'Xeneize' fans, and his final goodbye came at Brandsen 805 following the elimination against Racing in the Clausura semi-final, a match in which he did not play a single minute. According to Noticias Argentinas, a leaked video after the final practice showed the 34-year-old player dejectedly heading to his car. The statistics of the Colombian full-back reflect mixed results: in 244 matches, he scored 14 goals and provided 32 assists, winning 8 titles. Nevertheless, his career took a sharp decline starting in 2023 after the defeat to Fluminense in the Copa Libertadores final—a match that denied Boca its seventh title and a chance to equal Independiente as the most decorated club. With less and less playing time in recent years, his relationship with the blue and gold squad, which began in 2016, deteriorated this year, with his last appearance in the 'Xeneize' jersey coming after the loss to Atlético Tucumán in the Copa Argentina. Fabra played only four matches in 2025 and, after the defeat against 'El Decano', was no longer considered by the coaching staff. Hours later, the player himself shared an image from the training center on his official Instagram account with a crying heart and a broken heart emoji. After 10 years at La Ribera, Fabra brought an end to a story full of ups and downs.
