Rodrigo Herrera will be the new addition to Newell’s, while Carlos González will continue his career at Olimpia of Paraguay after becoming a free agent.
The club will purchase 80% of Herrera’s transfer rights from Defensa y Justicia. The midfielder will arrive in Rosario in the coming hours to undergo medical exams and, if there are no issues, will sign a three-season contract with La Lepra.
Meanwhile, the departure of Carlos González has been confirmed. Newell’s decided not to exercise the $1.5 million purchase option for 50% of his transfer rights, so the forward is now a free agent and will become a new player for Olimpia.
With these developments, the rojinegro team is beginning to shape its squad for the season, adding a piece to the midfield and freeing up a spot in attack.
