TYC reports that Atlanta United had an obligation to purchase 50% of Matías Galarza Fonda's registration for three million dollars, conditional on him starting in 75% of the matches during his six-month loan. Galarza Fonda did not reach the 75% threshold for starts, making the purchase non-mandatory. Atlanta United understands that they can acquire Galarza Fonda at a price lower than the original obligation if they wish to secure his services, as River Plate intends to part ways with him.

Atlanta United announced that Matias Galarza has arrived at the club on loan from River Plate until June. The American club has an option to make the transfer permanent. The club's sporting director, Chris Henderson, stated that Matias is a young, talented player who will add energy and intensity to their midfield.

Paraguayan international central midfielder Matías Galarza, 24, has left River Plate to join Atlanta United in Major League Soccer (MLS) in the United States. This move has given River Plate the option to sign a new player to fill the vacated spot. Galarza has 13 caps and 2 goals for Paraguay. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value to be €3.00m.
