Boca Juniors has confirmed a major change in its squad for 2025: Cristian Medina, the 22-year-old midfielder, is set to join Fenerbahce, the Turkish club managed by José Mourinho. The deal will be finalized in January, with an initial payment of $15 million, plus an additional $5 million based on performance bonuses.

Medina to Stay with Boca Until End of 2024

Despite the agreement, Medina will remain at Boca until the end of 2024, giving the club the opportunity to count on him for key matches in the Argentine League and Copa Argentina. Additionally, Boca will receive a 20% sell-on clause if Fenerbahce decides to transfer Medina in the future.

A Successful Career at Boca Juniors

Medina has been a key player for Boca, winning five titles and making 155 appearances for the club. His transfer marks a new chapter in his career, where he will be the only Argentine in a star-studded squad featuring players like Edin Dzeko and Fred.
