Adam Bareiro scores goals for Fortaleza that he missed at River and acknowledged Boca's interest

Adam Bareiro, currently playing for Fortaleza, has acknowledged interest from Boca Juniors amid his recent success in scoring goals.

Adam Bareiro, a Paraguayan forward playing for Fortaleza, has been making headlines for scoring three goals in his last four matches, showcasing a performance that contrasts with his time at River Plate. Boca Juniors has expressed interest in acquiring Bareiro as they face challenges in their offensive lineup due to injuries among their strikers. This has led Boca to reportedly offer $3 million to Fortaleza for Bareiro, who was previously bought by the Brazilian team from River for $3.5 million just a few months ago.

Bareiro has acknowledged Boca's interest, emphasizing his commitment to Fortaleza and the confidence the team has placed in him. In a recent interview, he stated, "I have my head here. Fortaleza had much confidence in me, and I value that. If I'm having a good moment, it's thanks to that." His statement suggests that while he appreciates the attention from Boca, he remains focused on continuing to perform well for his current club as they advance in the cearense tournament.

Fortaleza has indicated that any decision regarding Bareiro's potential transfer will be made only after the semifinal match of the cearense tournament, which they won 2-0 against Ferroviário. As the soccer transfer market heats up, all eyes will be on how this situation unfolds, particularly how Boca's pursuit of Bareiro might impact their strategy given their current squad's limitations in the attacking positions.
