Lavega shines for Coritiba, already outscoring Fluminense forwards | OneFootball

Loaned by Fluminense to Coritiba, Uruguayan Joaquin Lavega is enjoying a good spell in the Brazilian Championship. The attacking midfielder has scored four goals in the competition and is currently the second-leading scorer for the Paraná-based team.

With the number of goals he has scored so far, Lavega has outperformed some players in the same position in Fluminense’s squad, such as Agustín Canobbio, Kevin Serna, and Savarino.

If those four goals were counted for Fluminense, the Uruguayan would also be the club’s second-leading scorer in the Brasileirão, behind only John Kennedy, who has seven goals in the competition.

Lavega was sent on loan to Coritiba until the end of the season. His spell with the Paraná club has helped give more minutes and continuity to the 20-year-old, who is looking to gain experience and earn more space in Brazilian football.
