According to a statement on DSPORTS Radio by Sebastián Peratta, the sporting director of Independiente Rivadavia, the club has no open negotiation with Boca for Sebastián Villa. Peratta said the player's clause is a private agreement between parties. He also stated that Villa's situation is logical for a player who has been the best in Argentine football for two years, and added that it will be resolved when it needs to be. The amount of Villa's release clause is 10 million dollars, and Independiente Rivadavia expects a figure close to this.

According to the Argentine newspaper 'Olé', Sebastián Villa is a target for Boca Juniors in this transfer window, the Buenos Aires club considers Villa one of the priorities to strengthen their attack, and has already contacted his agents.

Following strong rumours of Boca Juniors' interest in Sebastián Villa, the player has recently distanced himself from the Azul y Oro. Villa is expected to remain at Independiente Rivadavia, although it is not ruled out that Boca may pursue him again in June. Daniel Vila, president of Independiente Rivadavia, denied any contacts with Boca Juniors regarding Villa. He stated that there is no substance to the rumour, which he thinks is from social media, adding that Villa is currently a player for Independiente and will stay at the club until the transfer window opens in the middle of the year.

Boca Juniors, through its president Juan Román Riquelme, is interested in Sebastián Villa returning to the club as the fourth reinforcement. Sebastián Villa is in conversations with Juan Román Riquelme, and if the deal happens, it will be resolved this week. The president of Independiente Rivadavia, Daniel Vila, stated that he has a verbal agreement with Villa to let him go if an offer beneficial to both parties arrives, and that he will not impede his departure if an offer meets the economic expectations.
