2. Adolfo Gaich

The Argentine striker, current player of San Lorenzo, has also had a very good performance in the pre-Olympic, highlighting the second goal he made after the brilliant pass of his teammate Mac Allister against Colombia. According to the coach of the U-23 team, Fernando Batista, in statements to Diario Uno, Gaich, is encouraged "always to go for the play, to go for the goal, regardless of whether he fails or not."

Thanks to these qualities, the Argentine is in plans so that the Belgian club Bruges wants it in his squad. According to TNT Sports, the European team would have already made an offer to San Lorenzo for 13.5 million euros, but the transaction was not made because the Argentines ask for 15 million euros for the striker. It seems that the Belgian club is so interested in its performance that it would complete the transaction in the next winter market.

3. Alexis Mac Allister

Another Argentine player who is in the sights of a European team. The Boca Juniors midfielder has stood out during the pre-Olympic, because in the debut he scored a goal from free-kick and down the floor, an action that tied the game against Colombia, a game that the Argentine team subsequently won.

Now the player might go to the Premier League, specifically to Brighton. It should be remembered that the English club acquired the Mac Allister pass in 2019 for 10 million euros, but the player did not manage to go to the Premier for visa problems, and that is why he stayed another year in Boca, when in the summer the transaction could not be completed

However, it was known that the work visa is now valid for the Argentine, so the arrival in Brighton would be a closer possibility as long as the English club agrees to give compensation to Boca Juniors.
