Santos Eye Racing’s Marco Di Cesare: Transfer Details & Negotiations

Santos has begun the season with some challenges, but has been recovering under the command of Juan Pablo Vojvoda. On Sunday (15th), the team achieved an important victory, winning 6-0 against Velo Clube in the Campeonato Paulista.

Strengthening the Squad is a Priority

Aware of the need to strengthen the squad, the club has been seeking reinforcements in the transfer market. There is a strong push to sign Marco Di Cesare. Negotiations with Racing are progressing, and there is an expectation that the defender will arrive at Alvinegro Praiano during this transfer window. The technical staff believes he would fit very well into the team’s tactical setup.

Despite the interest, Racing has been firm in its position, rejecting any possibility of a loan. For them, Di Cesare is an important player and should only leave the club through a permanent transfer.

To finalize the player’s departure, Racing president Diego Milito awaits a formal proposal from Santos. Racing has set a value of 6.5 million dollars, considered fair by the Argentinian club.

How is the Deal Progressing?

Although this value is considered high by Santos, which is currently facing financial difficulties, the biggest concern is the form of payment. The club is seeking to negotiate an installment plan to facilitate the conditions. Racing does not rule out this possibility, although initially preferred to receive an advance of 4 million dollars and the remainder in future payments. This issue of the installment payment is what has made it difficult to finalize the deal.
