Friday Aug 10th

The English transfer window shut on Thursday and after a bit of uncertainty striker Leonardo Ulloa left Leicester City for Liga MX club Pachuca.

Thursday Aug 9th

Newcastle United have made a transfer deadline day move for Argentina international Federico Fernández. Good move for the Magpies and for the player.

Wednesday Aug 8th

Racing Club finally complete a deal for Chilean left-back Eugenio Mena.

Friday Aug 3rd

Thursday Aug 2nd

Even more reason for San Lorenzo to complete some business in the market as Flamengo confirm the capture of Paraguayan midfielder Robert Piris Da Motta. The 24-year-old was one of the few Cuervos to impress during 2018.

Currently away with the Argentina Under-20s, Gonzalo Maroni’s loan move to Talleres has been completed. The Boca youngster was included in the deal that saw Lucas Olaza leave La T and we should now see plenty more of the midfielder in the Superliga.

Santiago Rosales has a new club after signing with Gimnasia. Never really worked out at Racing but still only 23 is a useful addition.

Lazio finally confirm the signing of Joaquin Correa from Sevilla. The 23-year-old joins for a reported 16 million.

Monday July 30th

Carlos Auzqui has been pretty dreadful at River Plate but the forward showed his quality earlier in his career with Estudiantes so he could prove a decent acquisition for Huracán.

Patronato were in need of a goalscorer after the sale of Sebastian Ribas and they may have found one in Ezequiel Rescaldani. The 26-year-old has never really settled anywhere since looking a really bright prospect at Velez a few years back but has the qualities to lead the Patronato line.

Newell’s Old Boys have completed the triple signing of Paraguayan trio Iván Piris, Teodoro Paredes and Alfio Oviedo. Piris brings a wealth of experience to the defence as does Paredes and Oviedo is an exciting attacking prospect.

Defensa y Justicia bring back experienced former Racing and Vélez midfielder Francisco Cerro from Rayo Vallecano.

Saturday July 28th

Injuries have really stalled Lucas Albertengo’s career and having dropped down the pecking order at Independiente, the forward has signed a one-year loan deal with Estudiantes.

Independiente close the deal for Ezequiel Cerutti – the former San Lorenzo forward joins El Rojo on a one-year loan deal with the option to buy from Al-Hilal for $4.5 million.

Thursday July 26th

Defensa y Justicia add another new face and another youngster who could benefit from a spell in Florencio Varela. Mauricio Tévez arrives from Newell’s having seen his progression slow since his goal scoring debut in La Bombonera.

Monday July 23rd

River Plate finally get Marcelo Larrondo off the books even if it is only on loan. Defensa y Justicia pick up the centre forward on a year-long deal.

Friday July 20th

Thursday July 19th

Ezequiel Ponce joins Lucas Boyé at AEK. The 21-year-old striker joins on loan from Roma and despite struggling for playing time since leaving Newell’s for Europe is a real coup for the Greek club.

Former River Plate and Newell’s Old Boys forward Lucas Boyé has failed to find regular football since signing with Torino in 2016 but after a loan spell with Celta Vigo last term is now heading to Greek club, AEK. Still only 22, Boyé needs to be playing to help identify his best position.

Argentinos Juniors see another part of last season’s attack depart as out-of-contract Javier Cabrera opts to sign for Liga MX club Toluca.

Unión have signed Franco Troyansky from relegated Olimpo. The 21-year-old scored four goals last season in what was a dreadful side.

Tuesday July 17th

Once the hottest prospect in Argentina, Tomás Conechny hasn’t been able to force his way into San Lorenzo’s first team plans and now finds himself out on loan at MLS club Portland Timbers.

Things never really worked out for Joaquín Arzura at River Plate but the midfielder was considered a genuine talent when at Tigre. The 25-year-old has joined Almería on loan.

Full back José San Roman has joined Atlético Tucumán from Newell’s Old Boys.

Former Boca Juniors youngster Federico Bravo has signed for Patronato after spells with New York City FC and Greek club Panetolikos.

Ahead of their relegation battle this season, Belgrano have signed Denis Rodríguez and Adrián Balboa.

Defensa y Justicia complete another bit of business. 22-year-old midfielder Matías Rojas arrives from Cerro Porteño.

Belgrano add defender Matías Nani on loan from Roma after the 20-year-old spent last season at Temperley. Big shoes to fill at El Pirata after the sale of Cristian Lema.

San Martín de Tucumán’s busy window preparing for life in the top flight continues as Nicolás Giménez comes in from Talleres. Manager Ruben Forestello knows the midfielder well from Nueva Chicago and is the latest new arrival at the club.
Lucas Diarte (Estudiantes), Marcos Figueroa (Temperley), Alberto Acosta (Almeria), Julian Vitale (Independiente), Rodrigo Moreira (Independiente), Emiliano Purita (San Lorenzo), Adrián Arregui (Temperley) and Tino Costa (San Lorenzo) all on board.
