Racing Club’s Search for a Center Back: Gustavo Costas’ Transfer Market Woes

2024-01-12 04:09:29

A defender to reinforce Racing is what Gustavo Costas wants. It seems easy and simple. Quite. It is one more position on the field in which the club needs new faces no matter what. Something that was known for at least three months. But no one has arrived yet. Gonzalo Piovi even left (beyond the low level he was the starter in the left sector) and there are no longer any variants. At this time there are only Nazareno Colombo and Leo Sigali, who look to start as starters in the League Cup because whoever arrives will need time to adapt and train.

But beyond thatthe Academy in the transfer market accelerates the search for a center back. Late but safe. Although reality indicates that everything is much more difficult than expected and the alarm goes off for Gustavo Costas. The first five names that the coach gave to Víctor Blanco are already completely ruled out. They might not move forward with the different negotiations. The one who came closest was Emanuel Mammana, to whom a formal offer was made and everything. The player chose Vélez, which offered him more money and where he knew he was going to start. In Avellaneda he had to fight with Sigali and Colombo. In addition to an unusual reason why he chose Liniers.

The truth is that given the rejection of these first names that were on the list, others began to emerge. Costas wants a defender as reinforcement in Racing. In reality he aims for three in the entire defensive zone. A left back and two center backs. But he is also willing to negotiate and accept that only two come. A born central defender, regardless of whether he is left or right-handed and another who is either left-handed or left-wing and who can also play as a winger (something similar to what happened with Gonzalo Piovi). Now the outlook looks quite complex and that has the DT worried.

Gularte, requested for costs to be reinforcement as a defender in Racing, almost ruled out

In the last hours the Academy transfer market added a new name. In this case we are talking regarding Emanuel Gularte, from Querétaro, Mexico, who is on loan from Puebla. and that was requested by the coach. He liked it and passed it on to the leadership. But In the first poll, the possibility of him reaching Avellaneda was almost ruled out. In fact, those around the coaching staff were quite pessimistic regarding this operation. Same feelings that were expressed from the leadership side.

A reinforcement defender for Racing wants Costas. Gularte is almost impossible.

The arrival of defender Emanuel Gularte as reinforcement to Racing was not easy. The Uruguayan center back arrived in Querétaro only six months ago and started every game in the Mexican league this semester. He played the 90′ ​​in 17 games and is highly regarded. Previously, he had played three seasons for Puebla, a club that took him from Uruguay at a very young age, where in 2019 he played for Progreso. AND He has six more months left on his loan so it is practically impossible to get him out.

Also in the last hours Costa gave Rasmussen, another one who was being analyzed, the thumbs up. Godoy Cruz’s center back had been offered. A few days ago another central alternative also fell in the transfer market for the Academy. We are talking regarding Lucas Villalba, who is in Argentinos Juniors but is not going to arrive. Another one that the coach liked because he might be a center back and a left back. The search continues, the pencil becomes sharper and the margin narrows. The coach, it is clear, is increasingly worried.
