Ferro add Reniero's quality for the run-in and to fend off Colón | OneFootball

Heading into the final stretch of the Primera Nacional football tournament, Ferro Carril Oeste secured a notable addition after being granted an extra roster spot due to an overseas transfer.

In the coming hours, the Caballito club will make official that 31-year-old forward Nicolás Reniero will strengthen the squad managed by head coach Juan Manuel Sara.

El Verde has the chance to add one more player to its roster after Gabriel Ayala was transferred to a club in Qatar.

Reniero, who has previously played for San Lorenzo, Almagro, Racing Club, and Argentinos Juniors, among other clubs, most recently featured for Lugo in Spain’s third division. He scored 11 goals in 44 matches, although he parted ways with the club last August for “personal reasons,” according to the EFE news agency website.

The striker will sign a contract through June 2027, with an option to leave next December.

In addition, center forward Mateo Benegas, who is currently serving a suspension after being sent off against All Boys (1-0), could be loaned to a club in Saudi Arabia.

Ferro, leaders of Group A in the championship with 49 points, will host Mitre of Santiago del Estero this Friday in one of the early matches of the 28th round.
