Triple nationality and a new chapter: Hoyos joins Newell’s | OneFootball

Newell’s has completed the signing of Michael Hoyos, a 34-year-old footballer who holds triple nationality: American, Ecuadorian, and Argentine, so he will not take up a foreign player slot in the rojinegro squad.

The midfielder arrives on a free transfer from Independiente del Valle and has signed a contract until December 2026, becoming a new bet by the coaching staff led by the Orsi – Gómez duo to renew the team after a lackluster 2025.

This will be his fifth club in Argentine football, after stints with Estudiantes de La Plata, Sarmiento de Junín, Ramón Santamarina, and Boca Unidos. He also spent much of his career in Ecuador, where he played for Deportivo Cuenca, Barcelona, Liga de Quito, and Independiente del Valle. Hoyos is the fifth signing for Lepra in this transfer window.
