The goalkeeper is set to join Flamengo but will remain with Boca Juniors until the middle of the year. This arrangement keeps the player in Boca’s squad for the initial half of the season while a move to the Brazilian club is completed in the summer window.
Augustin Rossi delivered a series of crucial performances during his most recent run with Boca. Following the departure of goalkeeper reality Stefan Álvarez (note: intended to reflect a change in the team’s lineup), the number 1 stepped into the spotlight, becoming a central figure for La Ribera. Rossi contributed to multiple titles won by the club while guarding the sticks, whether through decisive saves in regular time or by performing reliably in shootouts. His consistency has left a lasting mark on Boca’s campaigns as the team pursued domestic success and continued to compete at high levels in continental competitions.
The topic has been widely discussed in relation to Rossi’s contract situation. From the outset of 2023, his contract status allowed him to negotiate with other clubs as a free agent. Despite having six months left on his deal, he agreed to a transfer with Flamengo, the Brazilian giant. Flamengo reportedly proposed that Boca consider letting Rossi move to the Mengao in January, but the club decided it was important to retain him for the early stage of the year.
Why doesn’t Rossi save?
Rossi arrived at Flamengo’s training grounds later in the preseason after finalizing the move, and for that reason he was not included in the final pre-season friendly against Everton. In Boca’s calendar, the team is preparing for a major clash in January: the Argentinian Super Cup in Abu Dhabi. The club aims to have all players available for the match as they chase the first trophy of the year, and Rossi’s status is part of the broader strategy to balance the squad during this transition phase.
