Unión is in decisive stages to complete two historic transfers that would provide a major financial lifeline. The club is preparing to pocket an amount that could exceed five million dollars thanks to the departure of two of its prospects, who are currently training separately while waiting for their moves to be finalized.

Mateo Del Blanco, headed to France’s Ligue 1

The most advanced case on Avenida is that of the 22-year-old left back. After establishing himself as one of the most important products of Tatengue’s youth system, his imminent destination would be Racing Strasbourg.

  1. The figures: The player’s release clause is set at 2,500,000 dollars net for Unión. Those involved in the negotiations believe it is an affordable amount for Europe, and the player could travel as soon as this weekend.

Rafael Profini, bound for Ukraine

The other major move of this transfer window involves the attacking midfielder, who has attracted strong interest from Eastern European football.

Crucial oxygen for a strained economy

This injection of fresh money will be key to balancing the club’s finances. Unión must urgently deal with outstanding financial commitments, such as:

  • Paying the transfer fees for Agustín Colazo and Maizon Rodríguez.
  • Settling debts tied to the club’s day-to-day operations.
  • Bringing salary delays in women’s football up to date and covering the costs of the basketball season in the National League.

Other income on the radar

In addition to these two sales, the red-and-white treasury remains alert to other pending payments: claims against Racing over the transfers of Adrián Balboa and Juan Ignacio Nardoni, an installment from Talleres for Joaquín Mosqueira, and the purchase option that Belgrano is considering activating for Thiago Cardozo.
