Independiente’s technical director, Carlos Tevez, announced that he has the youth forward Santiago López for the preseason that will take place in Miami, despite the conflict surrounding the renewal of the player’s contract. “If the leadership makes another decision, it will be up to the leadership. It surprises me because I’m not aware, I have him in the preseason group. If the club has to make a decision, it has to inform me quickly because we are practically already on the plane,” said the coach.
López, 17 years old, one of the figures of the Argentine national team in the recent World Cup of the category in Indonesia, refuses to renew his contract with the Avellaneda club in a case very similar to what River experienced with the Chaco jewel Claudio Echeverri, about to sign with Manchester City. “It is a very personal issue, it is something that the player must decide together with his family, I cannot influence the decision he makes,” said the “Apache” about López, whose contract expires in December 2024.
