Racing Club is once again interested in Gastón Lodico, a midfielder from Instituto who fits perfectly with what the Technical Secretariat is looking for. The club's management is working in the transfer market and has Lodico in their sights, a player who had already been considered in the past. Lodico renewed his contract with Instituto until the end of 2027, but his departure is not complicated and it is estimated that he could leave the club for a fee of less than $2,000,000. The 28-year-old player has a very good record, with 133 games played and 8 goals scored since he arrived in Córdoba in 2023. He has also given 20 assists and his passing is his strong point, in addition to his intensity and dynamics on the field. In this Apertura that just ended, Lodico played 14 games and proved to be a key player for his team. Racing Club's management has already sounded out the player and there is a possibility that he will join the club in this winter transfer window. In fact, it was reported that the management had asked Nico Diez if he would be interested in adding Lodico to the team, and the answer was affirmative. Lodico is a player who has been on Racing Club's radar for some time, and his name is not new in the academic world. In the last transfer market, Lodico had emerged as an alternative to Miljevic when Huracán did not lower their bid of $4,500,000. Franco Cristaldo was also considered, but everything cooled down when the management advanced and ended up closing the deal with Matko. Before joining Lanús, the team with which he made his first division debut, Gastón Lodico played three years in Racing Club's Academy. He did it in the youth teams, until he was nine and left for Granate. The midfielder shared a team with Matías Zaracho, Muscio, and Matías Escudero. And he arrived at the club as a child because he was a fan of the team. In a 2019 interview, Lodico said that his family is all fans of Racing Club, but that he also became fond of Lanús. He assured that it would be very nice to play for Racing Club because it is a big club. Lodico's career has several facets, as he has played for different teams and seems to have found his best form at Instituto. After starting at Lanús, he went to Hungary for a year and a half to play for the champion Ferencvaros. They did not buy him and in 2021 he returned to the country to play for Aldosivi. From Mar del Plata he traveled to Chile to play for O'Higgins and since 2023 he has been playing for Alta Córdoba, where he stands out and was a teammate of Maravilla Martínez.
