He Devil Claudio Echeverri It is the new gem of River and he has more photos as a youth member of the National Team than with the team’s shirt. Millionaire, where he only has a handful of minutes on the court. He is, everyone knows, one of the most promising players in Argentine football and at 17 years old he has a termination clause of 25 million euros.
Due to his qualities and because there are several clubs that understand that it is a business to pay that clause, River intends to extend the player’s contract, which is valid until December 2024. While they negotiate the terms, Echeverri’s representative, Enzo Monteopanealso heard the offer you have Barcelona to have him in his squad starting in June.
The Catalan club’s plan is to wait until January 2 when Diablito turns 18 to allow him to sign a contract without the need to involve the player’s parents. Barcelona intends to pay River those 25 million euros to take him before the current contract ends, but in installments.
In Núñez’s entity they believe they have everything verbally agreed to keep Echeverri and understand that the family would not bid for the possibility of Barcelona, since some time ago they received several gestures as a sign of the intentions to keep the footballer in the club.
But the club Catalonia He is not the only one interested. Manchester City He also has his sights on him, but unlike Barcelona he will not try to take the player next year so as not to tarnish the good relationship he built with the purchase of Julian Alvarez. He Chelsea It is the other club in England that follows him closely.
The truth is that while in River they hope that Monteopane, who resides in MarbellaSpain, arrived in the country to sign the extension of the contract, the representative also listened to Barcelona and its interest.
At River they want a five-year contract and raise the exit clause to at least 50 million of the common European currency and a substantially better salary than the current one because the risk is that without the new firm, the Diablito -strictly speaking, his representative- can negotiate as a free player starting July 1 of next year and leave Núñez in January 2025 without a transfer.
In this context, Barcelona is determined to accelerate and the uncertainty increases because despite the talks between River and the representative regarding the new contract, Time passes and the signature does not crystallize.
“I am convinced that the Echeverri issue will be resolved between now and the end of the year. This is what his representative told me. We had agreed to talk about this before the World Cup (U17) but we didn’t want to hinder that trip and it was great for him. We are accompanying Claudio’s entire growth process and I hope that these days we will have news,” River president Jorge Brito hoped in an interview with Tyc Sports.
