Nicolas Lodeiro is likely leaving Boca Juniors after their Copa Libertadores run ends. At least, that’s what Boca President Daniel Angelici told Fox Sports on Thursday prior to his team’s 2-1 loss in the first leg of their Copa Libertadores semifinal against Independiente Del Valle.
"It’s close, it’s close," Angelici said. "We should know by Monday."
Although Angelici doesn’t explicitly say which team Lodeiro might join, he does acknowledge that a team in the United States is a possibility and that they’ve made a good offer.
If Lodeiro is coming to MLS, it is almost certainly to the Sounders.
