Saint Lawrence is moved. San Lorenzo is enjoying a kind of revolution. The protagonist is Iker Muniainwho said “yes” and will play for Pope Francis’ team. The former Athletic Club player travelled to Buenos Aires last night and will land at Ezeiza airport today, around midday in Spain. He will arrive accompanied by his parents, his girlfriend and his agent.
Muniain will travel from the airport to the hotel, undergo a medical check-up and then sign a contract until December 2025. A sponsor will largely cover his incorporation. Tomorrow Muniain could have his first session with his new teammates. It has not yet been decided how the official presentation will be. At San Lorenzo, which has a loyal fan base and is the most creative in the country, there is immense expectation.
Iker Muniain had the dream of playing in Argentine football. He had said that he would like to play for River, but the millionaires never opened the door for him. Last week, the player traveled for a couple of days to Buenos Aires. San Lorenzo found out and arranged a meeting with his agent to propose that he play for Ciclón. Iker participated in that talk and was even seduced by coach Leandro Romagnoli, Cuervo’s idol and the most successful player in the Boedo club.
