LIVE – NAPLES, Zeballos surprisingly negotiates contract renewal with Boca Juniors

Exequiel Zeballos appears destined for another turnaround: instead of leaving for Europe, the Argentine talent has returned to considering a contract extension with Boca Juniors. Local sources report contacts between the player's entourage and the Xeneize management, with the player reportedly taking his time before deciding on his future.

The situation remains unclear: Spanish officials and some foreign media outlets have linked Zeballos with European clubs, but Argentine outlets are reporting that Boca is trying to secure him or ask for a fee believed to be substantial (around €6–8 million) in the event of a sale. At the moment, there is no official confirmation or signed documents; the negotiations appear to be ongoing and need to be monitored day by day.
