River Plate has shown interest in acquiring Yeferson Soteldo from Santos. The Argentine club has started discussions with Santos to ascertain the conditions for the transfer. Soteldo's contract with Santos is valid until the summer of 2027, and his transfer rights are shared with Tigres of Mexico, potentially complicating negotiations. River Plate is eager to bolster their squad for international competitions such as the Copa Libertadores and the Super Mundial de Clubes. Marcelo Gallardo, the coach of River Plate, reportedly admires Soteldo's style of play, which aligns with the team's offensive requirements.
