Fluminense announces the signing of Gabriel Fuentes to strengthen the left-back position

Fluminense officially announced the signing of left-back Gabriel Fuentes from Junior Barranquilla, Colombia, on Monday (3).

The deal was closed for $1.2 million, equivalent to about R$ 6.6 million, for 60% of the player’s economic rights. Fuentes, who shone at the Colombian team, had previously competed in South American tournaments, including the knockout stages of the Conmebol Libertadores, which prevents him from playing for Fluminense in the current edition of the continental competition.

Despite being unable to compete in the Libertadores, Fuentes arrives as a key addition for domestic competitions, especially to bolster the defensive sector of Fernando Diniz’s team. The Colombian was offered to the Rio club through intermediaries and quickly impressed Fluminense’s management, who saw valuable potential in the player.

With a solid stint at Junior Barranquilla, where he was a regular starter, Fuentes played in all group stage and knockout matches of the Libertadores, scoring one goal and providing one assist. Now, in Brazil, he will be tasked with helping Fluminense achieve victories and climb higher in the league table.

Gabriel Fuentes is eagerly awaited by the Tricolor fans, and his debut in the Brasileirão is highly anticipated. Fluminense’s next match will be against São Paulo at Maracanã, where the Colombian could make his first appearance in the Tricolor jersey. Stay in the know with BB Score.
