Federico Vera among the players wanted by Diego Martínez | OneFootball

After being unable to execute the purchase option for Tomás Guidara, Huracán began to look for new horizons for the right back position and set its sights on a player from Independiente. Federico Vera is one of the players targeted by el Globo, who wants him for next year.

The method would be through a loan with a fee and a purchase option. The wingback had already been sought after by Parque Patricios in June 2023, during Diego Martínez’s first stint as coach.

However, the Quemero side did not have enough money to sign him and ended up with Lucas Souto on loan from Defensa y Justicia. Then, in August 2024, el Rojo appeared and paid Unión 1 million euros for his transfer.

Vera was a starter during the first half of the Torneo Apertura, a period in which Julio Vaccari’s Independiente shone, despite being eliminated in the semifinals by, ironically, Huracán. Afterwards, with the arrival of Leonardo Godoy, he alternated starting positions with the former Unión player.

A few days ago, president Abel Poza explained the reasons why they couldn’t sign Guidara: “Today Huracán doesn’t have the $650,000 to buy Guidara. We had to borrow money to pay for Toranzo and the embargoes, otherwise we would have had to stop operating. We’re always playing catch-up.”
