Tuttomercato reports on Leandro Paredes extending his contract with Roma amidst rumors of a return to Boca Juniors. Leandro Paredes has extended his contract with Roma, putting an end to persistent rumors of a possible return to Boca Juniors. This renewal comes unexpectedly after months of speculation.

Leandro Paredes has extended his contract with Roma until June 2026. The Argentine midfielder is currently in his second stint with the Italian club, having previously played for them during the 2014/2015 and 2016/2017 seasons. He returned to Roma in the summer of 2023. This season, he has been featured in 26 games for the team.

Leandro Paredes was expected to return to Boca Juniors in his homeland. However, with the arrival of the new coach, Claudio Ranieri, the situation changed. Paredes has started playing again, and negotiations for the renewal of his contract, which expires on June 30, are back on track. The parties are now very close to an agreement. The player is ready to sign a one-year deal for the next season until June 2026, with an option for an additional year until 2027.

Leandro Paredes has met the requirements for an automatic contract renewal with Roma until 2026, but the extension also depends on Roma's qualification for the Europa League and the player's willingness to stay.
