Alan Franco could be leaving Independiente and joining Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia.
Per a report by TyC Sports, Independiente have been negotiating with the Croatian club for the 23 year old center back. Independiente have reportedly rejected a $4.3 million offer as they are looking for a fee of $5 million for him.
Franco has already been capped by the Argentina national team.
Gonzalo Higuain scored for Juventus while Diego Perotti scored twice for Roma in their 3-1 win.
Higuain opened the scoring for the once more crowned league champions, a poacher like finish from inside the penalty area following a Juventus corner kick. Roma would draw level and Diego Perotti would give them the lead as Roma were awarded a penalty kick and Perotti made no mistake from the spot.
Diego Perotti would once more score off a lovely counter attack.
It’s 8 goals for the season from Gonzalo Higuain in the league with 11 goals in total. For Perotti, it’s 5 goals for the 32 year old and 6 in total.
Cristian Romero had a goal and got himself red carded for Genoa in their 3-0 win vs. Verona.
It was a match that secured Genoa’s spot in Serie A for next season with the team finishing in 16th spot in the table. With Genoa leading 2-0, it was a towering header by the former Belgrano man. However, Romero would later get himself red carded.
Romero has been on loan all season at Genoa from Juventus.
Congratulations to Emiliano Martinez on winning the FA Cup with Arsenal.
It was a match between two big English teams at Wembley stadium and the guarantee was at least one Argentine goalkeeper was going to lift the historic trophy. Emiliano Martinez started for Arsenal while veteran goalkeeper Willy Caballero was in for Chelsea.
Aubameyang drew Arsenal level from the penalty spot after Chelsea had taken the early 1-0 lead. At 1-1, Aubameyang would score the second to give Arsenal the win.
Emiliano Martinez joined Arsenal in 2012 from Independiente and would go on loan to six different teams before finally getting a real opportunity two months ago. Martinez has proven to be a solid, reliable goalkeeper and could become the starting goalkeeper for Arsenal.
Just look how much the FA Cup win means to Arsenal keeper Emiliano Martinez 👏#facupfinal #bbcfacup pic.twitter.com/ZL0WtYjj5f
