River Plate announce a historic result with Otamendi in mind

River Plate announced a higher positive result, in its 123-year history, of US$ 62 million (R$ 57.8 million at current prices). According to the Argentine media, the Buenos Aires club could take advantage of this break to attack the signing of Nicolás Otamendi. Millionaires dream of signing the Eagles captain, whose contract expires at the end of the season. If the move to River Plate, a club of which Otamendi is a fan, comes to fruition, it will be after the end of the season in Portugal and not in January, as already announced in the land of Champions the Universe.

In any case, the financial result presented by the leaders of the Buenos Aires club will allow to convince the 36-year-old forward with an attractive salary. Otamendi arrived at Benfica in 2020 and renewed in 2023.

Signing the Argentinian defender is a real ambition of coach Marcelo Gallardo, who plans to join Otamendi at joint world champions Armani, Pezzella and Acuña. River leaders plans to take the venue forward in the Club World Cup.
