In the last few hours, Unión’s management has been offered central midfielder Nicolás Watson, formerly of Instituto, who played last season for San Martín de San Juan—a team that, in 2025, was relegated again and will play in Primera Nacional in 2026.

Recently, details have emerged regarding the future of Nicolás Watson, a footballer who came up through Instituto and also owns his player rights.

The midfielder was supposed to return to Córdoba after his contract with San Martín de San Juan ended, but Unión has shown interest in the player, making inquiries to learn about his situation.

Another team interested in the La Gloria midfielder is Deportivo Riestra, a club that also plays in the first division of Argentine football and that, next year, will play in international cups for the first time in its history, as it will be competing in the Copa Sudamericana.

This is not the first time Watson’s name has come up on Avenida, as he was scouted back in 2021 when Unión’s coach was Juan Manuel Azconzábal.
