The Baniyas Football Club company officially announced the renewal of the loan deal for Argentine midfielder Lionel Verde, who will remain with the institution for the 2026-2027 sports season. The young footballer belongs to Unión, the club with which negotiations were extended to prolong his stay in Middle Eastern football.

As part of the strategy for the new competitive cycle, the player was registered in the resident players category for the local championship. This regulatory status allows the coaching staff to optimize the foreign-player slots in the main squad and secure the presence of the promising player from Santa Fe.
