The Racing Club from Buenos Aires is seeking to strengthen its squad for the 2026 season. The club's management has contacted the environment of Boca's striker, Milton Giménez, to express their desire to have him on board for the next campaign. According to information from the Argentine News Agency, the 'Academy' has opened conversations with the representative of the former Banfield striker to learn about his situation at the 'xeneize' club. This is not the first time that the Avellaneda side has inquired about Giménez, as the 29-year-old player has been tracked and pursued by Racing's coach, Gustavo Costas, since the last transfer window. At that time, the 'blue and gold' board, led by Juan Román Riquelme, was asking for an amount close to 7 million dollars, a figure that exceeded Racing's financial possibilities. As a result, it was Elías Torres who arrived at Racing along with Adrián Balboa to compete with Adrián 'Maravilla' Martínez, but neither of them managed to achieve the necessary regularity to secure a place in the team. Given this situation, it is likely that one or both will leave the club in the upcoming transfer window. If that happens, the 'albiceleste' board will go all out to secure Giménez's services, who scored 10 goals and provided 4 assists in 34 matches. Although he started for most of the second semester at Boca, the striker born in Grand Bourg's level dropped at the end of the Clausura tournament and was heavily criticized by the 'xeneize' fans. This is why the 'La Ribera' leadership might allow the attacker to leave, as long as they can recover the USD 4,000,000 invested in 2024 to get him out of the 'Drill' or can include a footballer in the negotiations. This last option arises from the interest in Gabriel Rojas from Brandsen 805. However, the operation seems practically impossible, as Costas considers him a fundamental piece in his system.
