The Venezuelan, who was playing for Everton, arrived at no cost to the Argentine club. It is worth remembering that River Plate fought a classic with Boca Juniors in the race for the transfer of the center forward, who arrived at the suggestion of coach Martín Demichelis.
In the offensive sector, Rondón arrives to give more options to the cast of the Buenos Aires team. In addition to the striker, River Plate has well-known names in Brazilian football, such as midfielder Nacho Fernandez (formerAtlético-MG) and striker Miguel Borja (formerpalm trees e Guild).
Reinforcing itself for the year 2023, River Plate debuted in the Argentine Championship last weekend, in a 2-0 victory against Central Córdoba. Next Saturday, the team faces Belgrano, for the second round.
