Robertone, seventh arrival for the Almeria midfield

It's official: Lucas Robertone will wear the Almería shirt this season. The Argentine midfielder already crossed the pond yesterday to join the rojiblanca discipline, passing the medical examination and signing a five year contract, the maximum possible. Thus, the medium joins the group of promises for which Almería has signed strong until 2025: Olivera, Gutiérrez and Ramazani. The UDA has taken over the midfielder after paying Vélez 3.4 million euros for 50% of his rights, being obliged to pay another 30% based on different variables, as the Argentine club itself reports.

Lucas Robertone (1997, Concordia, Argentina), who will fill the gap that was going to be Raúl Guti, is the seventh incorporation that the sheikh has made for the medullary in this window, after Aketxe, Morlanes, Samú Costa, Gutiérrez and Carvalho. He acts as an offensive midfielder, although he can also start from the right side, in that José Gomes taste for playing on the wing with gamers more than with pure ends.

Formed in the lower Velez, he has participated in 70 official matches with the first team in the last three years, time in which he has materialized a dozen goals, with half the assists. Robertone made his debut in the first division of Argentine soccer in August 2016 playing in a match against Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata. Almería present him as a player “characterized by its quality, vision of the game and criteria when handling the ball”.

With his arrival and that of Carvalho last night, the rojiblanca entity still has to sign a center forward, without ruling out a right-handed winger with overflow, which handles other records to those in the template. For their part, they will Enzo, Vada and Aguza. Several Seconds are interested in the former Córdoba, although his high record does not finish making his departure, with Fran Fernández's Tenerife close to getting a loan. Martos is not guaranteed its continuity either.
