He is happy to be at River. "If someone wants to take him, they will have to pay €25 million. "Let's not take it out of context; the boy says he's okay here."D'Onofrio claimed that it was Quintero's performances for River, where he has made 13 Superliga appearances since arriving at the club, that paved the way for his successful World Cup and the subsequent interest from other sides. Expressing his admiration for the player, D'Onofrio compared Quintero with Argentina great Juan Roman Riquelme. "Juanfer reminds me of Riquelme," he said. "He is one of those players with peripheral vision, he looks to the right and he knows what happens to his left."He has shown little by little that he is a superlative player."</blockquote>
