Newell's Old Boys is negotiating with Independiente for Argentinian winger Walter Mazzantti, who is a specific target for coach Frank Darío Kudelka. Kudelka knows the 29-year-old player from their time together at Huracán, and Mazzantti is reportedly receptive to the move due to a lack of significant playing time at Independiente, having made 6 appearances with no goals or assists in the current domestic league season. According to TyC Sports, an offer was recently made to Independiente for a loan with a fee, which includes a purchase option for 70% of his rights. Mazzantti joined Independiente in July 2025 and his contract runs until the end of 2028; his current Transfermarkt market value is €3.20m. The player spoke with Kudelka on Thursday night and with his current coach, Gustavo Quinteros, on Friday morning, with all parties showing a positive disposition towards the transfer proceeding. If no unforeseen problems arise, Mazzantti could travel to Rosario over the weekend for a medical examination and to sign a contract, potentially making him available for Newell's match against Platense on Tuesday.
