It was expected that midfielder Lukas Vera would soon join the Lokomotiv team, as reported by Euro-football.ru.
Last season, he played for the Khimki club. According to the plan, the 28-year-old Argentine footballer was supposed to arrive in Moscow on Friday to sign a contract.
However, there are reports that the transfer may not take place. According to the Championship publication, a club from Saudi Arabia, whose name has not been disclosed, has made an offer to Vera. They have offered the player a salary 2.5 times higher than the current offer.
Therefore, Lukas is now close to moving to the Middle East. Lokomotiv had offered Lukas Vera a salary of 5 million rubles per month. It should also be noted that in the last Russian Premier League season, the Lokomotiv team finished the competition in sixth place.
This situation may lead to a reassessment of the team's plans for the upcoming season. For now, the transfer process remains uncertain, and how much the agreement with the player will materialize will become clear over time.
