Guillermo Barros Schelotto demands to keep Tomás Galván, and Vélez Sarsfield intends to renew the loan and save the purchase option. Tomás Galván played on loan throughout 2025, and the purchase option set by River Plate is 1.6 million dollars. According to Sábado Vélez, Vélez tried to negotiate another loan to continue having the player. The response from River Plate was that Galván will only leave again through a sale. Fabián Berlanga and his associates are preparing a new offer for the player, determined not to pay the full amount of the option.

Tomás Galván, a 24-year-old playmaker whose transfer rights are owned by River, has joined Vélez on loan with an accompanying fee and a purchase option valid until the end of the year. Prior to this, he had been loaned out to Defensa y Justicia, Colón, and Tigre since 2022. The midfielder, who was previously under the management of Domínguez at Tigre, is now part of the Liniers team as they finalize their squad at the end of the transfer window. Vélez, having been actively engaged in the transfer market, secured Galván as a strategic measure to enhance their midfield options.
