Inter Miami have their full attention on the January transfer window, with some interesting deals expected to be made.
The departure of Nicolas Freire from Inter Miami means Javier Mascherano will likely be in the market for a new central defender, with the Herons also interested in big-name players like Mohamed Salah and Angel Di Maria.
One interesting storyline will be the future of Facundo Farias, with the Inter Miami forward missing all of 2024 due to an ACL injury picked up at the start of the year, though the Argentine youth international is due to return for pre-season.
Yet Boca Juniors are seemingly weighing up an interesting deal to sign Farias.

Boca Juniors eyeing Facundo Farias swap deal with Inter Miami
According to El Crack Deportivo, the South American giants are weighing up a proposed swap deal with Inter Miami for Farias, with Boca Juniors willing to offer up 19-year-old defensive midfielder and Argentina youth international Milton Delgado.
Farias is regarded as one of Inter Miami’s most exciting talents despite missing all of 2024, with Argentina media once labeling the forward as ‘Neymar-like’ during his breakout year with Colon.
Moreover, with Farias working with Mascherano at Argentina youth level, the Inter Miami manager could be eager to give the young forward until the summer to show how good he can be in this side for 2025.
Yet with Boca Juniors offering an exciting prospect for Farias in Delgado, Inter Miami have a lot to think about going into the January transfer window in regards to the future of one of their star talents.

Mascherano has to give Farias a fair shot at Inter Miami next season
Having missed an entire year of action having previously played just a handful of games for Inter Miami, it’s safe to assume that Herons supporters are yet to have a real taste of what Farias has to offer.
And with Mascherano aware of Farias’ abilities and how good the forward can become, the new Inter Miami manager needs to give the versatile attacker a fair shot at what he can do next season having fully recovered from injury.
Indeed, Farias impressed with his limited game time last season for the Florida franchise, and the youngster will be keen to return to action with Mascherano at the helm having replaced Tata Martino.
