According to TYC, Independiente is interested in Giuliano Galoppo. Galoppo is a 27-year-old Argentinian-Italian central midfielder, and his potential transfer has ongoing complications. Independiente is one of several clubs interested in the player, along with Rosario Central and Italy's Cagliari. The player is not currently playing at River and has not reached an agreement with any team. A FIFA-imposed ineligibility sanction complicates his potential transfer. The sanction was enacted because of a debt to his former representative, Leandro Nicolás Escudero, which originated from his transfer from Banfield to San Pablo in mid-2022. The footballer is required to pay his former agent more than $530,000 and 4.3 million pesos. He is reportedly working with his lawyers to resolve the issue and have the sanction lifted. Galoppo joined River Plate in January 2026, with a contract that expires at the end of 2028. His market value, according to Transfermarkt, is currently €3.50m. During the 2025/2026 domestic league season, he made 9 appearances and scored 1 goal in the Torneo Apertura, but he did not play in the Torneo Clausura. The reported fee for his transfer to River Plate was €4.0 million. His earlier transfer from Banfield to São Paulo in July 2022 was for €6.0 million.
