Gimnasia sounded out Rodrigo Rey, but a move looks unlikely | OneFootball

The Argentine football transfer market is slowly starting to pick up, and clubs are beginning to inquire about players who could be key additions to strengthen their squads. In this case, Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata is looking for a goalkeeper and has already asked about the conditions for Rodrigo Rey, Independiente’s captain.

For the next tournament, El Lobo wants to strengthen its goalkeeping position and bring in a player who can compete internally with Nelson Insfrán. The club’s board got in touch with Rey, who has six months left on his contract with El Rojo and has not yet held talks over a renewal. Even though his deal with the Avellaneda side runs until December this year, the goalkeeper’s salary is very high, so it would be very difficult for Gimnasia to afford it, and the move is practically ruled out.

Another name being mentioned for the Mens Sana goal is Jorge Fatura Broun. The former goalkeeper under Diego Maradona at the La Plata club received a call from president Carlos Anacleto, who asked him about his intentions following Conan Ledesma’s arrival at Rosario Central. At the moment, Fatura is the most concrete option.

So far, these are all just inquiries, but it is clear that one of El Lobo’s priorities is to strengthen that position. On Independiente’s side, the goalkeeper position is not a priority for the upcoming transfer window but, just in case, the board is asking about other options in case their captain and leader leaves the club.
