The synergies of the teams controlled by the new ownership, such as Inter Miami (Mas), Lens and Padova Calcio (Oughourlian) and Millonarios de Bogotá (Serpa, along with Oughourlian himself) can help in the signings, as well as Atlético de Madrid, the closest and key club in the Zaragoza purchase process with Gil Marín as the main figure and which has already brought Mollejo and Giuliano Simeone to La Romareda. However, that connection is often not enough, due to the situation of the players or because of their explosion. It was not with Camello (Athletic), nor with Daniel Ruiz (Millionaires) and much less with Simon Banza (Lens). Nor has it been with Matías Pellegrini, who in the end has imposed his decision not to play in Zaragoza and will continue in the MLS, although in New York City after an operation, probably in the form of a transfer, which is about to materialize. Inter Miami had to give him an outlet by having covered the quota of three franchise players allowed by the Major Soccer League.
Inter Miami wanted to renew his contract, which ended in December, and transfer it to Zaragoza, but the winger, who had a good season last season at Estudiantes de La Plata, where he trained as a player before being transferred to the club owned by Jorge Mas , He intended to return to Argentina, with the intention of Boca Juniors to obtain his transfer, as also wanted to repeat it. Zaragoza never entered his plans and did not want to play in the Second Division, but Inter Miami did not accept that transfer to Argentina, where the transfer market ended at the beginning of August, and the footballer is finally going to set course for another MLS team, to New York City, in an operation pending only the last details and the medical examination and the signing of the contracts.
Inter Miami understood that a jump to Spain is the best for their evolution as a footballer and the synergies with Real Zaragoza made them see Juan Carlos Carcedo’s team as the ideal one to take that step. The entities already agreed on the transfer of the extreme and his arrival was pending to release salary mass and above all to convince the player, who arrived at Inter Miami in 2019 for more than eight million euros from the Argentine Students.
Formed in the quarry of that team, he signed for Inter Miami to go back on loan in a first stage, which ended after six months and, after the break in MLS due to the pandemic, in April 2021, Inter Miami exercised its purchase option by guaranteed contract. However, he did not have a place for the franchise player places, so he was in the Inter subsidiary and returned to Estudiantes after three months. In this 2022 he has 23 games and two goals with the Argentine team. Pellegrini is a winger, right-handed and who starts more from the extreme left and who will not reach Zaragoza despite the need to reinforce that position.
