After a transfer window marked solely by departures, the outlook at Unión is starting to turn around. Attacking midfielder Mauro Luna Diale will rejoin training with the professional squad under Leonardo Madelón. The player has formal authorization from his parent club to take part in preseason while negotiations are finalized to secure his permanent stay for the second half of the year.

The coaching staff and management’s plan

  • Immediate evaluation: The goal is for the coach to closely assess him at the training ground.
  • Advanced talks: The player’s presence in Santa Fe is intended to speed up the final agreement.
  • Management optimism: The board is confident of a favorable outcome due to the good will of all parties involved.

Luna Diale’s current situation

His return has generated high expectations because of the excellent impression he left during his previous spell at the club. That strong level earned him a transfer to FC Akhmat Grozny of Russia. However, he is coming off a recent loan spell at Platense, where he failed to establish himself and saw very limited playing time.

Given this situation, the possibility of his return was immediately approved by Madelón. The head coach considers the forward’s quality, individual ability to make a difference, and deep knowledge of the club’s inner workings to be key factors in strengthening the attack ahead of the upcoming competition.
