After conquering the “Eternal Glory”, the Brazilian team began to think about its next squad for its commitments in 2025: Carioca Championship, the Brasileirao, the Brazilian Cup, the Libertadores, Recopa Sudamericana – which will be played in February against Racing – and the Club World Cup.
Iker arrived free at San Lorenzo in June of this year and, so far, has a value of 4.5 million euros. According to sports journalist César Luis Merlo, the amount offered by “Fogão” is millionaires and in the coming days there will be a response from the “Ciclón” leadership.
What Botafogo will look for with its reinforcement is that the Spaniard takes the place that Thiago Almada will leave free after his departure to Olympique Lyon.
Muniain has a contract until December 2025 with the Boedo institution.
Even though he had few games wearing the San Lorenzo shirt – 14 official games where he scored three goals and made one assist – coach Miguel Ángel Russo chose him as the team captain. The Basque’s future is in his own hands, since the “Ciclón” is not having a good moment institutionally, while the Brazilian team has a totally different present where it will be able to fight for different cups.
