Lanús to Sign Franco Petroli After Medical Finding Forces Deal Restructure

The move shifts from a planned loan to a partial purchase following a flagged cardiac issue in his medical.

Overview

  • Diario Uno reports Lanús will proceed with Petroli’s arrival despite his failed medical, viewing the issue as low severity.
  • The original agreement was a loan with a fee and an obligation to buy for a reported $1.5 million for 80% of his rights.
  • Negotiations were reworked to a direct purchase of a portion of Petroli’s pass instead of the loan structure.
  • La Voz del Interior previously described the transfer as paused after the medical flagged a long-standing cardiac condition known to Godoy Cruz.
  • Petroli is expected to leave Godoy Cruz, which holds his registration through December 2027, and serve as a backup option at Lanús.
