Colombian midfielder Kevin Castaño, 24 years old, is about to become a new player for River Plate. After several ups and downs in the negotiations, Castaño finally completed his transfer from Krasnodar in Russia for 12 million dollars.
"I have been a fan of the club since I was a child, it’s a very big dream for me," Castaño revealed in an audio that was recently shared on social media. The footballer joins the team led by Marcelo Gallardo with the goal of providing solidity to the team in midfield, an area where the team has faced difficulties this year.
The player expressed his excitement about arriving at River and showed gratitude for the efforts of all parties involved in finalizing his transfer. Castaño is expected to arrive in Argentina this Tuesday, complete the usual medical examinations at the club, and then sign his contract to join the training with the rest of his teammates.
Castaño's signing represents an important reinforcement for River, which seeks to strengthen its squad in light of upcoming sporting challenges. With the arrival of the midfielder, it is expected that the team will add a key piece in midfield and continue on the path to victory in the competitions ahead.
