According to TYC, Newell's is among the suitors for Agustín García Basso. Now that García Basso has his transfer rights, Newell's appears to be in a leading position to sign him, and it has been reported that their directors have asked him to lower his demands.

According to TYC, Agustín García Basso, who had been in conflict with Racing's management for several months, was recently close to moving to Newell's. However, the transfer did not proceed and he rejoined the squad. The defender, who had also sought a move to San Lorenzo a few months prior, will now train separately from the main group until his situation is resolved, as he is one of several players at the club seeking a transfer.
