A message: Changes to Mundo Albiceleste, reduced ads, new design

1

Hello everyone,

Since the start of the new year, we have been experimenting with different ads and locations across the Mundo Albiceleste website. And if we are being completely honest, it was time for a permanent change.

We have also been hearing and reading all of your feedbacks and are happy to announce what we believe are significant changes. The number of ads on the website have been reduced (we believe significantly) and ultimately, while the ads do help in keeping up with the maintenance of the website, we still want every one to enjoy viewing and reading the content.

Mundo Albiceleste was built by Argentina fans and for Argentina fans, which is why we believe that should remain the priority and will remain the priority.

Should you have any comments or suggestions, please, do let us know in the comments below or email us at mundoalbiceleste10@gmail.com. Our aim is to continue to improve and to provide more content (which we will continue to be doing and will be introducing new sections throughout the year) than we ever have before. And to aim for quality over quantity.

As always, your feedback is strongly appreciated. Mundo Albiceleste has been around since 2006 and we would not be where we are without the Mundo Albiceleste family.

Thank you,

Inter Miami are interested in signing Giovani Lo Celso of Real Betis.

The reigning MLS Cup champions could be signing Giovani Lo Celso. According to El Correo de Andalucía, the MLS club are interested in the 29 year old but Real Betis would ask €5 million for him.

Giovani Lo Celso joined Real Betis in 2024 from Tottenham Hotspur. Inter Miami previously signed Rodrigo De Paul earlier this year from Atletico Madrid.

River Plate sign Aníbal Moreno and Fausto Vera

River Plate continued their transfer-market activity ahead of the 2026 season by securing the signings of Aníbal Moreno and Fausto Vera, reinforcing the midfield as requested by head coach Marcelo Gallardo.

River reached an agreement with Palmeiras to acquire 100 percent of Moreno’s transfer rights in a deal reported to be close to $7 million. The midfielder arrives after alternating between starts and substitute appearances with Palmeiras, recent runners-up in the Copa Libertadores, and is expected to compete for a regular role in River’s midfield.

While attending a charity event in Catamarca, his home province, Moreno suggested the transfer was agreed. “My agent knows we made the best decision for me, for my family, and for my future. It’s the right decision. I’m preparing well for the start of the year,” he said.

Moreno’s situation is also being followed by the Argentina national team. He recently featured in an international friendly against Puerto Rico, and consistent minutes at River could influence future selections by Lionel Scaloni ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

In parallel, River completed the signing of Fausto Vera, who arrives from Atlético Mineiro. Vera adds another option in central midfield and increases competition in a sector that the club identified as a priority after the end of the 2025 season.

Beyond the midfield, River continue to explore options in attack. One of the names being discussed is Gianluca Prestianni, currently at Benfica, with negotiations focused on a possible loan move. Another player under consideration is Tadeo Allende, whose contract belongs to Celta de Vigo after his recent season in Major League Soccer.

Nicolás González suffers muscle injury in Atlético Madrid win over Girona

Nicolás González raised concerns on Sunday after leaving the pitch injured during Atlético de Madrid’s 3–0 away victory against Girona, in Matchday 17 of LaLiga. The Argentine winger was forced off around the half-hour mark and, shortly after the match, Atlético confirmed that he suffered a muscle tear.

The incident occurred when González attempted to chase a through ball and abruptly stopped. He immediately grabbed the back of his right leg and went down in visible pain, pointing to the hamstring area. Medical staff quickly intervened, and the forward was substituted, prompting concern on the Atlético bench and beyond.

Further medical tests are expected in the coming hours to determine the exact severity of the tear and establish a recovery timeline.

The situation is also being closely monitored by the Argentina national team coaching staff. With international fixtures ahead and the long-term focus on the 2026 World Cup, head coach Lionel Scaloni will be hoping for positive news regarding the winger’s availability.
