Unión pick new keepers after Gomes Gerth injury, Raschia loaned out | OneFootball

The "Mundo Unión" suffered a significant blow after the severity of Federico Gomes Gerth's injury was confirmed. Although the official statement is yet to be released, preliminary studies revealed a ligament tear that will sideline him for the rest of the year, leaving a significant vacancy in the professional squad.

Given this situation, the coaching staff must make adjustments ahead of the match against Independiente this Tuesday at 19:45. It seems that Lucas Meuli will be tasked with taking a spot on the bench as an alternative to Matías Mansilla. Although Meuli did not play in the recent friendly against Sportivo Las Parejas due to a physical issue and trained separately, his recovery is going well, and he is expected to arrive at the Libertadores de América stadium without any problems. Agustín Chávez is also on the consideration list as a backup option if needed.

Departure in the Position: Raschia Heads South

Amidst this scenario of changes, a move in the youth transfer market has been confirmed. In the coming hours, the young Mateo Raschia—who already has a professional contract with the club—will leave the institution to join Guillermo Brown of Puerto Madryn on loan, a team competing in the Torneo Federal A. The aim of this loan is for the goalkeeper to gain the necessary experience and playing time to return stronger to Avenida López y Planes.

This move adds to that of Froilán Díaz, another promising talent from the club's youth ranks, who had already been loaned out at the beginning of the year to Delfín in Ecuador. With these departures, the "Tate" seeks for its goalkeepers to gain the necessary experience in other leagues to return with greater maturity to the first team in the future.
