The San Lorenzo considered it “insufficient” and refused an offer from Italy for Agustín Martegani

Ruben Dario Insua it is held on hold due to incorporations which take time to arrive Saint Lawrence. But, at the same time, the market is moving and before a new face arrives, it could lose part of its already short squad. And there is a name that is starting to settle on the other side of the Atlantic. is approx Agostino Marteganithe 22-year-old creative midfielder who stands out in the first team and who is already sought after by Italian football.

The Hellas Veronawho has Giovanni Simeone in the squad, has set his eyes on Martegani and at the beginning of the European market he hastened to make a formal offer of $ 4 million gross for the Boedo entity. In the Cyclone they welcomed that they start looking at their footballers as they need fresh money, but the answer has been no.

Management rejected this offer because it was “insufficient”. It is that of the four million gross, after taxes, the Rossoneri club would have remained less than three million, a number that is not enough to take the newly started midfielder out of the quarry in the first three dates of the championship and the one in total in Saint Lawrence played 26 games and scored four goals.

Will a new offer arrive from Italy? While they wait to see if the figures improve in Verona, they watch carefully what happens in the Cyclone German Berteramand, the striker who was a figure in San Luis de Potosí last season and who will now join Diego Simeone’s Atlético de Madrid.

Berterame, who came out of the Barça youth academy, is no longer a club footballer, but in Boedo he retains 40 per cent of his economic rights. And the management of San Lorenzo is waiting. Is that Berterame, 23, has exploded scoring 17 goals in 36 presentations in the Mexican league and are looking for him from America and Rayados de Monterreywhich for him could shell out up to 8 million euros.

However, the situation is complex and at San Lorenzo they suspect they want to exclude them. Berterame’s contract with San Luis expires at the end of June and the striker is already in Madrid to join Atleti from 11 July, the day the Cholo team’s preseason begins. The Mexican club is a branch of the Colchonero and that is why the striker is caught.

Either way, Berterame could be loaned to a Spanish promotion team or someone interested in Mexico. In San Lorenzo they carefully observe these movements. They think that everything could be a triangulation to avoid having to involve him in the operation.

They say they have already sent a letter to FIFA and that they are willing to sue in AFA and go to the final consequences if, if a transaction is finalized, they do not pay the corresponding percentage. We will have to see what the end of this cumbersome plot that could trigger a conflict will be.
