The 20-year-old only joined the Grifone from Belgrano last summer but has already made 14 Serie A appearances, scoring one goal.

An Argentina Under-20 international, he would go straight into the Old Lady’s squad next season as opposed to return on loan to the Rossoblu.

He can also play at right-back and is described by Agresti as ‘a warrior with a strong personality and ample room for improvement.’
