Liga Profesional Overview

Lautaro Martinez remains a cornerstone of Inter, but his heart still beats strongly for Racing Club. The striker, who left Argentina in 2018 to join the Nerazzurri, remains an iconic figure for Racing fans and has confirmed his long-term goal to 'convince' wife to return to the Argentine giants in the future.

Argentina’s most-capped goalkeeper, Sergio Romero, has hung up his gloves at the age of 39. The former Manchester United star, who enjoyed a trophy-laden career spanning nearly two decades, has reportedly stepped away from the pitch due to family reasons. After a final stint in his homeland with Argentinos Juniors, the veteran shot-stopper is now preparing to transition into a new role on the touchline.

River Plate have sensationally withdrawn from the Argentine Football Association (AFA) Executive Committee, citing a lack of transparency and procedural guarantees. The Buenos Aires side have moved to distance themselves from the governing body just as a nationwide club strike begins in response to a federal tax evasion probe. While the club remain committed to certain AFA principles, they have demanded a complete overhaul of how the domestic game is governed.

Edinson Cavani has been a name synonymous with elite goalscoring for over a decade, but the sun may finally be setting on one of the most prolific careers in modern football. The 39-year-old, currently plying his trade with Argentinian giants Boca Juniors, has been hit with a blunt ultimatum to hang up his boots. Once the darling of Old Trafford and a hero in Naples and Paris, the Uruguayan is now finding the twilight of his career increasingly arduous as form and fitness continue to fail him in South America.
