Matías Lugo, 23 years old, reached an agreement with O’Higgins and in the next few hours it will be made official.
Only details remain for O’Higgins to make official the arrival of a new member for the 2025 squad.
This is the 23-year-old Argentine midfielder, Matías Lugo, who for the last two years has defended Estudiantes de Caseros, a member of the Trans-Andean Primera Nacional.
Then, formed in Argentinos Juniors, a team with which he recorded an official match played in the highest category of the neighboring country, in the “Matador” he won the captaincy and was a key piece in the campaign that this team had, which fought for promotion towards the honor series.
At 1.73 meters tall and 65 kilos, Lugo – restraint – earned a name in the Argentine B series and that led him to be on O’Higgins’ radar. The light blues negotiated with the team that owns their card and that is why they will come to wear the light blue.
With Lugo soon integrated into the squad, one of the places that Francisco Meneghini said was left to be filled is filled. Now, it remains to add a right back and a forward to the group, both of whom should be ok in the coming days.
Let us remember that El Capo will start the second week of work looking for the set-up for the start of the Chile Cup, at the end of January, and the start of the National Tournament agreed for the middle of February.
