Zapping Our Mondial UNFP Trophy: players of the month
Loaned to the Los Angeles Galaxy last season, Argentinian Cristian Pavon (25) returned to Boca Juniors. Having only one year of contract and being cold with his leaders, Cristian Pavon should not drag on in Boca. And the OM of Jorge Sampaoli, who knows him well for having taken him to the 2018 World Cup, could capitalize on this situation.
An exchange with Benedetto?

According to Diario Olé, OM could offer an exchange with Dario Benedetto to obtain 50% of the rights of Cristian Pavon. As multi-ownership is banned in France, this figure could turn into a percentage for resale when OM cede Pavon in turn.
But this tempting offer for Boca Juniors comes up against two major obstacles. First, Dario Benedetto does not wish to return to Argentina. Although not opposed to a departure of OM “Pipa” wants to stay in Europe as a priority. A rebound in Spain is mentioned. Second obstacle and not the least, Cristian Pavon is awaiting trial for an alleged sexual assault. Argentinian justice could simply prohibit him from leaving the territory until he has been tried and thus derail the transfer.
The Pavon trail promises to be complicated. But OM at the request of Jorge Sampaoli, still wants to dig it!
