From sidelined at Newell’s to career revival in the US | OneFootball

Lucas Hoyos will leave Newell’s after a year with virtually no playing time and will continue his career in MLS. The 36-year-old goalkeeper will join Atlanta United, a team once again coached by Gerardo Martino, and will experience his first stint outside of Argentine football.

The goalkeeper, who came up through Lepra and also played for Vélez, played only one match this year, and it was with the reserves, after recovering from a ligament tear suffered at the end of 2024. With no place in the first team, he will become a free agent at the end of the year.

At Atlanta United, he is expected to sign a contract until December 2026, with an option to renew for one more season. Following Brad Guzan’s retirement and Josh Cohen’s departure, a key opportunity opens up for Hoyos at this stage of his career.
