Three other players are also close to sign for the team. River is about to win the battle for the signature of Ernesto Farias, Estudiantes de La Plata forward. Boca Juniors and Independiente were also in the race for the player, but he showed his preference for the millionarios. The transfer for the top scorer of the Apertura Tournament will be worth around 4.000.000 USD.

The two other players are Juan Fernández and Ariel Garcé. The later is a defender formed in River Plate, having left for the mexicans of Morelia last year. The deal is to sign for River on loan. Fernandéz is currently playing for Borussia Dortmund and although playing regularly in the first team, and earning the confidence of Matthias Sammer, it is known that the player as failed to adapt to german lifestyle, and looks forward to a chance to return to Argentina.
