Decisive hours in the deal between Colón and Nacho Lago | OneFootball

Colón is very close to finalizing an important piece of news with not only the present in mind, but also the future: Ignacio Lago is expected to sign a contract extension in the coming days through December 31, 2027.

Negotiations between the Colón board and the forward’s representative, Pablo Caro, have been moving forward for several weeks, and the deal appears to be on track. In fact, president José Alonso had already said during the club’s 121st anniversary celebrations that there was an agreement in principle and that everything was in place to complete the renewal.

The obstacle was a contract adjustment with Colón

Despite the optimism from the club’s leadership, the signing has not yet been completed. According to what has emerged, the parties were already aligned on the figures and terms of the new deal going forward, but an issue related to the current contract still had to be resolved.

That was precisely the point that held up the final agreement: Ignacio Lago wanted a financial update to his current salary before signing the extension through 2027. Those close to the player considered that request logical, given how much his role has grown within the first-team squad.

After an interview with LT10, Alonso even revealed that he was on his way to a meeting in the city to finish working out the final details. However, for now, there has been no official announcement.

A player who has become more influential in the team

Lago has become an important piece for Colón since his arrival. During the 2024 season, he played 26 Primera Nacional matches, scored six goals and provided three assists, in addition to netting once in the Copa Argentina.

In the current season, he has already made 12 appearances, with five goals and one assist, confirming his growth and becoming one of the team’s most decisive attacking players.
