The Ecuadorian Jordy Caicedo has been linked to River Plate by journalists and sports media in Argentina this Friday. The name of the CSKA Sofia scorer came out as of Thursday when Marcelo Gallardo at a press conference acknowledged that he is analyzing “two or three very specific alternatives” to incorporate a new reinforcement in the fifth slot of the squad released by Colombian striker Jorge Carrascal , who is leaving for CSKA Moscow in Russia.
“River had been looking for strikers in the foreign market. The name that Diego (Monroy, ESPN reporter) provides and that I knew was coming from the side of Ecuador’s players is Jordy Caicedo, who was the Ecuadorian top scorer during (the season) 2020-2021 and who plays for CSKA Sofia . I knew that the Ecuadorian market and the Colombian market were two places where River was looking for alternatives to the possibility of the fifth quota released by Jorge Carrascal,” River’s source said on the newscast. ESPN.
However, very soon another journalist from that chain said that he verified with his sources that “the conditions are impossible for River”, due to the high cost of the pass from the Machaleño attacker who, according to his inquiries, has been valued by CSKA Sofía at 6 million.
Another Argentine medium, Infobae, points out that “River called and asked for conditions.” “Now it will depend on whether they make an offer, but the club only lets him go through a sale,” they explained to Infobae from the athlete’s inner circle. The European Bulgarian entity would have requested 5 million dollars to free the artilleryman from him.
Last January, the tricolor forward was highlighted as the best foreigner in the Bulgarian League, a distinction he shared with a CSKA Sofia teammate, the Dutch defender Jurgen Matheij.
The election was in charge of 112 sports journalists, as representatives of 41 media, who completed the podium of the three best foreigners with the Irish midfielder Graham Kerry.
Caicedo returned to Bulgaria after participating with the National Team in January and this month of February in the double round of the South American qualifier for the World Cup in Qatar and participated in a friendly match for his team against FC Tsarsko Selo Sofía, scoring a brace in the minutes 81 and 90.
The 24-year-old attacker before rejoining CSKA-Sofía was concentrated with the Tricolor for the double date of the South American World Cup. He did not see minutes in Quito against Brazil (1 to 1) and played the last ten minutes in Lima against Peru (1 to 1). (D)
