Unexpected twist in talks: Jeremías Lucco will not join Colón | OneFootball

When everything seemed to indicate that Jeremías Lucco's future was in Santa Fe, negotiations hit a definitive roadblock. Belgrano had a full verbal agreement with Colón for the 20-year-old young attacking midfielder to join the Sabalero on loan. However, the deal ended up falling through in the final hours of this transfer window.

Behind this change of course is the strategy of the president of the Córdoba club, Luis Fabián Artime. The «Pirata» leadership decided to freeze the loan move to the second division due to the strong interest the player sparked in the top tier of Argentine football.

Banfield and Defensa y Justicia make their move

With the move to Colón ruled out, the Professional League market immediately became active for the Colonia Tirolesa native. Two First Division clubs have already begun making inquiries and want to secure the services of one of the brightest prospects from Belgrano's youth academy.
