The cycle of Kevin Zenón atBocahas come to an end. After several months marked by irregularity, coaching changes, and different attempts to find a way out, the midfielder was transferred to Atlas de México, which agreed with Xeneize on a deal of 6 million dollars.
The negotiations extended over several days and started with a loan proposal with an option to buy that Boca rejected. The management led by Juan Román Riquelme had established as a condition a definitive sale or a loan with an obligation to buy, a position that the Mexican institution ultimately accepted.
Atlas, managed by Hernán Crespo, insisted on the player and improved their offer after the first leg of the quarter-finals of the Sudamericana Cup against São Paulo. With the economic differences resolved, both parties finalized the transfer and the left-footer became the new reinforcement for the Guadalajara team.

With Boca, which held 80% of Zenón's economic rights, they will receive around 4.8 million dollars. The remaining percentage will continue to belong to Unión, the club from which the midfielder arrived at the Ribera in 2024. At that time, Xeneize had disbursed around 3.5 million dollars, in addition to the 25% of the economic rights of Mauro Luna Diale and the free loan of Simón Rivero.
In this way, the blue and gold institution will not only recover the investment made for the player, but will also obtain a financial gain from the transfer. For the management, the deal represented one of the main objectives given the lack of prominence that the player from Corrientes had in recent times, while for Zenón it will be a new opportunity to regain playing time and prominence.
