Forward Lucas 'Pocho' Román has joined Independiente as a reinforcement, showing enthusiasm for joining the team. Coming from Barcelona B, Román expressed his happiness to be at such a large club and his ambitions to win everything with Independiente, emphasizing that it is a step-by-step process.
In his statements, the young attacker mentioned that his arrival at the Avellaneda team came after receiving a call in which they spoke highly of the group and the coaching staff, which gave him confidence from the very beginning. Román highlighted his excitement to compete again and described his playing style as focused on one-on-one situations, showing commitment both in attack and defense.
Independiente secured the incorporation of Román by acquiring 50% of his rights in a deal with no initial cost, becoming partners with Barcelona for a future sale. If they receive offers equal to or greater than five million dollars, the Avellaneda club will be obligated to sell the player. Román, a debutant at Ferro in 2022 and with experience at Barcelona B, will sign a three-year contract with the team led by Julio Vaccari.
