Lautaro Montenegro leaves San Lorenzo and joins Al Wahda in an official transfer
Lautaro Montenegro, a 21-year-old Argentine defender, has been confirmed as the new player of Al Wahda, according to reports from Germán García Grova and César Luis Merlo. The transfer was finalized for 200,000 dollars.
In a move that is now official, Lautaro Montenegro has left CA San Lorenzo de Almagro to join Al Wahda in the United Arab Emirates. The transfer fee has been set at 200,000 dollars, and the player will sign a contract that binds him to the Arab club until June 2031.
Montenegro, 21 years old, is a promising Argentine center-back whose market value is estimated at 1,000,000 euros. With his departure, San Lorenzo not only receives the agreed amount but also secures 20% of a future sale of the player, which could be a significant income if his career takes off abroad.
The confirmation of the transfer has been reported by multiple sources, including César Luis Merlo, who indicated that the player is already on his way to the UAE to formalize his new contract. Germán García Grova has also corroborated this information, emphasizing the importance of this deal for both clubs.
This signing represents an important step in Montenegro's career, as he looks to establish himself in a competitive league and prove his worth in a new environment. For San Lorenzo, although they lose an emerging talent, the operation allows the club to gain some capital and maintain a future stake in his development.
