Mariano Cowen, the president of Gymnastics, reiterated that the renewal of Cristian Tarragona’s contract is imminent, and that the corresponding signing will take place in the next few hours, when an envoy from Uriel Pérez, representative of the scorer, will have a meeting with the negotiators of the club.
The senior manager of Lobo spoke about the issue before the match against Vélez at the José Amalfitani stadium, and in this context he assured that he had held a dialogue with Tarragona, during which they agreed that the attacker would continue to wear the Albiazul shirt.
The situation has been delayed, and this is what is striking, although according to what Cowen stated, one of the points that took the longest to negotiate was the termination clause, which ended up being agreed in terms closer to those set by the representation of Tarragona.
The footballer, who is recovering from a serious knee injury suffered shortly after the start of the previous tournament, could come to be taken into account in a few weeks by Sebastián (“Chirola”) Romero, who considers him essential to command the attack of his youthful team
The president of Gymnastics, in an interview minutes before the start of the game in Liniers, accepted the risks that the club runs by presenting a youth formation, although he assured that “it was the only possible way” to rearrange the institution’s finances.
In these terms, Cowen considered that according to the plan drawn up by the Board of Directors that has him in charge in the middle of the year, Gymnastics would be in a position to strengthen itself.
