Boca's Bareiro Stuck in Admin Limbo

Adam Bareiro is physically ready to return, but bureaucratic red tape at Boca Juniors is keeping the Paraguayan striker off the pitch instead of his recent knock. Bareiro has been grinding through daily physiotherapy sessions to recover from the injury, showing physical progress that should have him back in training. However, the club has not granted him medical clearance, citing administrative hurdles that have nothing to do with the state of his knee or muscle.

The delay is baffling given the striker’s availability is crucial for the congested fixture list. The situation highlights a breakdown in the club’s logistics rather than a failure of the medical staff. While the player has done his part to rehabilitate the knock, the paperwork required to officially activate him for matchday squads remains stalled.
