Gremio give Nardoni an official welcome, he's now a Gaúcho: details | OneFootball

After several back-and-forths, the future of Juan Nardoni has finally been decided. Racing reached an agreement with Gremio, and the midfielder born in Nelson, Santa Fe, will continue his career in Brazilian football. The Porto Alegre institution has already welcomed him, and the player will travel in the coming days to join his new team.

After differences arose in recent hours, the negotiations reached a successful conclusion, and the midfielder will play for the Brazilian team in 2026, thus closing an important chapter at the Academy.

Racing had acquired 70% of Nardoni's transfer rights in 2023 for a figure close to 3.2 million dollars, based on the official dollar rate at that time. In this deal with Gremio, 80% of the rights are transferred for USD 8 million. From this amount, taxes will be deducted first, and from the net amount, the Avellaneda club must pay Unión 30%. Additionally, from the 20% of the rights not included in the sale, Racing will retain 14% and Unión 6%. A key point is that the extra USD 2 million for sporting objectives will be entirely allocated to the Academy.

In the immediate term, the 23-year-old midfielder, who did not play against Tigre, trained normally during the week. However, it seems he will not be available to Gustavo Costas for the match against Argentinos Juniors this Saturday, as he is expected to travel to Brazil on Monday to complete his transfer.

In this way, Nardoni closes a significant cycle at Racing. He played 126 official matches, scored 5 goals, provided 7 assists, and was part of a successful period, with the conquest of the 2023 International Super Cup, the 2024 Copa Sudamericana, and the 2025 Recopa Sudamericana. Now, the Academy hopes to capitalize on his sale, although the final amount that will enter the coffers will be less than the gross value of the transfer.
