Racing de Córdoba offer Wanchope Ábila deal for promotion push | OneFootball

La Academia de Nueva Italia made him an offer, and the experienced striker, who will not continue at Huracán, asked for a few days to consider it and decide his future.

With the thumbs down from Diego Martínez, the brand-new coach of Huracán who will not be counting on him, Ramón Wanchope Ábila will end 2025 far from Parque Patricios, although he could start next year very close to home. That’s because Racing de Córdoba made him an offer to fight for promotion in the Primera Nacional.

The 36-year-old striker, who had a modest third stint at the Globo (19 matches, only one as a starter and no goals), stated that he is “in perfect shape” and that retirement is not on his mind. He has not yet terminated his contract, but in the coming weeks he will arrange his departure on good terms. That’s why in Nueva Italia they took note of his situation and their president, Manuel Pérez, made him a formal offer to reinforce the squad with a view to 2026.

The experienced forward expressed his gratitude and asked for a few days to consider the offer and finalize the future of his career. La Academia is not the only club interested; there are other teams that have started talks in recent days to sign him.

Although it won’t be easy to convince him, Racing de Córdoba is hopeful that he can join Pablo Fornasari’s squad, who has already given his approval. It would be his second experience in his home province, as he already wore the colors of Instituto, the team he openly supports, more than a decade and a half ago.

Throughout his career, Wanchope has scored 149 official goals and provided 35 assists. Lethal striker numbers, although the truth is that the last time he found the back of the net was almost a year and a half ago, back on August 14, 2024, in the round of 16 of the Copa Argentina against Argentinos Juniors.
