What started as a rumor ten days ago has turned into an imminent reality: Damián Pizarro will play for Racing Club during the 2026 season. The Chilean forward, whose rights belong to Udinese in Italy, will arrive in Avellaneda on a 12-month loan, including a purchase option for the Argentine team.
There is a total verbal agreement between the institutions, and the lawyers have already started exchanging contracts to formalize the operation. The young striker is expected to travel to Argentina in the coming hours to undergo a medical examination and join Gustavo Costas, who urgently sought a strong alternative following the departure of Luciano Vietto.
Power for Costas' attack
Pizarro, trained at Colo Colo, seeks in Argentine football the continuity he couldn't establish in Serie A. His profile as a powerful forward with great physical presence fits perfectly with the intensity promoted by the academic coaching staff.
With this addition, Racing makes a strong statement in the transfer market, securing one of the most promising talents from the Southern Cone to tackle the year's triple competition.
