Miguel Borja landed in Argentina to undergo the respective medical examinations and sign his new contract with River Plate. With his arrival, he will be the nineteenth Colombian to be part of the 'Millionaire' institution. The last one to join was Agustin Palavecino.
At 29 years old, Miguel Borja will be part of River Plate for three and a half years. The Argentine club paid 100% of his fee and will join Marcelo Gallardo's team as soon as possible, as they urgently need a player with his qualities, following the departure of Julian Alvarez and the failure to sign Luis Suárez.
On the other hand, Borja joins the prestigious list of Colombians who have come to the club, where many have known how to make a name for themselves and be remembered to this day. Figures like Juan Pablo Ángel, Mario Alberto Yepes, Radamel Falcao, 'Teo' Gutierrez, Rafael Santos Borré, or Juan Fernando Quintero come to light.
It will depend on the forward whether he manages to enter the history of River Plate, one of the biggest institutions in South America and aspiring to become the champion of the Copa Libertadores in the next edition. Miguel Borja is backed by his 16 goals in the 27 matches played in this 2022.
