River Plate's 32-year-old goalkeeper Jeremías Ledesma is in advanced negotiations to become a new player for Rosario Central. The Argentine News Agency reported that the player, who was controversially made a champion by Rosario Central, would return to the club where he was formed. According to the source, the transfer will be a one-year loan with an option to buy. The reason for leaving River is the confirmation that Franco Armani, the world champion, will remain the starting goalkeeper. Ledesma, who debuted under the guidance of Uruguayan coach Paolo Montero in 2017, will compete for the position with the legendary goalkeeper Jorge Broun and his substitute Axel Werner. River did not agree to a full sale of Ledesma's registration, considering that, given Armani's age, the 32-year-old goalkeeper has a high chance of securing the starting spot at the 'Millionaire' in the 2027 season. Previously, from August 2020 to July 2024, Ledesma was on loan at Spanish Cádiz, where he played 138 matches, conceded 191 goals, and kept a clean sheet 45 times. In July 2024, River paid $2 million to acquire his rights, but in that year and a half, he only played 7 matches, in which he conceded 7 goals.
