Marcelo Saracchi, a 28-year-old Uruguayan full-back, is expected to leave Boca Juniors this summer. It is reported that he is not part of the club's future plans. Independiente is monitoring the full-back's situation as the club seeks a replacement for Milton Valenzuela. Although no official bid has been submitted, it is claimed that Saracchi has been made Independiente's main transfer priority. This potential move faces competition. According to a previous report from The Celtic Way, Parkhead chiefs had initiated talks to re-sign the defender and had initially indicated a desire for a second loan agreement, but little progress has been made. Saracchi is also said to have options with interest from Brazil and other parts of Europe. The defender, who has 11 caps for his country, has a contract with Boca Juniors until the end of 2027. His current market value is €2.00m, according to Transfermarkt. In June 2026, some reports claimed that Boca Juniors informed Celtic that the player was available for €1.5 million. Other sources suggested a fee of approximately £2 million would secure a deal.
