Unión exclusive: Gamba and Corvalán set to leave | OneFootball

The Unión squad will embark on their last week before the holidays, and it will be revealed what the future holds for Lucas Gamba and Claudio Corvalán.

A crucial week has begun to unfold to determine the fate of two key figures who marked an era at the institution: Lucas Gamba and Claudio Corvalán. Both are facing similar situations as Mugre practically did not play during this semester, and in Gamba's case, although he started with prominence, he lost it over time, which is why both are considering the possibility of leaving Unión in this transfer market.

Regarding Lucas Gamba, his case generates internal debate. Since the arrival of Leonardo Madelón, the forward from Mendoza regained prominence, started as a starter, and had continuity in the first phase, although as the matches progressed, he lost ground until he became the fifth offensive option for the coach. His numbers reflect his contribution: Torneo Apertura: 16 matches, 4 goals, and 2 assists (929 minutes); Torneo Clausura: 12 matches, 482 minutes; Copa Sudamericana: 6 matches, 1 goal (365 minutes); Copa Argentina: 3 matches, 1 assist (161 minutes). He was not present in the playoffs against Gimnasia.

Gamba's contract expires on December 31, and the decision will fall on Madelón. The attacker is considered the only one with different characteristics from the rest of the squad, but his departure is a concrete possibility.

In contrast, the situation of Claudio Corvalán is much more complex. The defender went from being captain and a key player to being completely sidelined by Madelón's decision. His numbers reflect his low participation: Sudamericana: 5 matches, 381 minutes; Apertura: 12 matches, 990 minutes; Clausura: 2 matches coming off the bench, just 13 minutes; Copa Argentina: no participation. He was also not considered for the playoffs against Gimnasia.

Corvalán has one more year of contract, but with a high salary for his current status in the team. For some time, Quilmes has been looking to bring him back to compete in the Primera Nacional, which seems like a viable exit if his sporting situation does not improve.

Thus, the coming week will be decisive in knowing which path two names will take, who, each in their own way, left their mark on Unión. Between the intention to renew energies and the need to adjust the budget, Madelón and the management will have the final say on whether Gamba and Corvalán will continue wearing the red and white or start a new chapter in their careers.
