San Lorenzo face Deportivo Cúcuta in Serie Río de la Plata friendly | OneFootball

San Lorenzo will play their first pre-season friendly of 2026 on Wednesday against Deportivo Cúcuta in the Serie Río de la Plata, with kick-off at 21:00 at the Estadio Luis Franzini in Montevideo.

According to SuperDepor.com, the match will be shown on Disney+ and ESPN Premium. The venue has a capacity of 18,000.

Under head coach Damián Ayude, San Lorenzo are navigating a severe institutional crisis. They have made their first signing of this window, midfielder Mauricio Cardillo from Independiente Rivadavia de Mendoza.

Even so, a difficult summer lies ahead, with player sales needed to ease finances. Boca and River are already monitoring several of their leading performers.

Defender Elías Báez has not travelled to Uruguay and will remain in Buenos Aires amid advanced talks over a move to the United States. An undisputed starter under Ayude, he is being protected to avoid injury as an exit appears imminent.

The operation is considered to be in its final stage, with contract details being finalised for a switch to Atlanta United. A counter offer has been lodged and discussions are well advanced following Monday night’s board meeting.

San Lorenzo face Cerro Porteño next in the Serie Río de la Plata on Saturday 17, with kick-off at 20:00.
