Buenos Aires, January 26 (NA) – San Lorenzo has secured a high-impact reinforcement for 2026 in the form of Luciano Vietto, who will join as a free agent after leaving Racing. The forward will sign a one-year contract, with terms based on achieving specific objectives. In the coming hours, the player will undergo a medical examination to finalize his signing with the team, as reported by the Noticias Argentinas news agency. Vietto departed Racing for a second time, a period marked by inconsistent performances and disagreements with coach Gustavo Costas.During his time at Avellaneda, he played 39 matches and scored eight goals, though a groin injury limited him physically for several stretches of the season and prevented him from maintaining continuity. For San Lorenzo, the arrival of the forward represents a significant upgrade at no transfer cost, in a market where the club is moving cautiously due to its delicate economic situation. The forward, with past experience in European football and international play, appears as a key addition to bolster the attack and provide goals for a team that needs more offensive weight. If no issues arise from the medical exams, the player will be officially presented and will be available to the coaching staff to begin training with the group immediately.
