Fluminense make progress on Ávalos deal with Independiente | OneFootball

Fluminense had a busy Thursday negotiating for the forward Gabriel Ávalos. According to the Argentine newspaper TyC Sports, representatives from the Rio de Janeiro club and Independiente held meetings throughout the day to discuss the terms of the negotiation.

According to the publication, the main obstacle remains the payment model of the tricolor's proposal, estimated at around US$ 3 million for 100% of the striker's economic rights. The initial offer was rejected by Independiente due to disagreements over deadlines, but Fluminense recently made adjustments to the conditions.

Also according to the Argentine outlet, the Rio de Janeiro club offered the player a three-year contract, with values considered higher than what the athlete currently earns in Avellaneda, a factor that favors a possible departure.

Internally, the situation is treated with caution by Independiente. If the transfer is completed, the Argentine club will not be able to hire an immediate replacement due to administrative restrictions that prevent the registration of new reinforcements.

At 35 years old, Ávalos sees the negotiation as a significant opportunity in the final stretch of his career, while Fluminense remains active in the market seeking a forward to strengthen the squad for the remainder of the season.
