One of San Lorenzo’s most sought-after players in this transfer market is Alexis Cuello. The forward, with great performance in recent times, is closely followed by Boca, which has him in the portfolio as one of the offensive alternatives. In the last few hours, information also emerged of strong interest from Brazil on the part of an important club. The institution would be willing to make a considerable offer to retain the services of the former Almagro. However, until now there has been no formal offer in the Boedo offices.
The club in question is Fluminense, which, like Ciclón, will compete in the Copa Sudamericana in 2026. According to reports from the player’s entourage and also from San Lorenzo, the possible offer would be around five million dollars for 100% of the transfer. It should be remembered that Ciclón owns 60% of the chip, while Almagro retains the remaining 40%. Both parties agree that, if a proposal of that amount or even higher arrives, it will be very difficult to retain the forward for next season.
Given these rumors, the one who publicly referred to the issue was Alejandro Oliva, treasurer of Almagro. The leader spoke on Dsports Radio and expressed: “For us, 40% of the Neck is two million dollars that Almagro has free. There was always talk of five million dollars minimum. Those two million for Almagro is a very important economic step. It would give us the freedom to grow institutionally.“.
In the event that Cuello’s departure is finalized, there is concern among the San Lorenzo coaching staff, which considers him a fundamental piece in the team’s formation. Finding a replacement with similar characteristics will not be an easy task in the short term. For his part, the player is not desperate to leave Ciclón, although he knows that an offer of this caliber would be difficult to reject. Meanwhile, Boca, another of the interested parties, assures that there will be a formal offer, although for now there has been no progress in that direction.
