Rising star Cantero Chooses San Lorenzo Over Racing
In a surprising move, promising young midfielder Milton Cantero has left Racing Club to join San Lorenzo. The 20-year-old talent,who impressed in Racing’s reserve team,has signed a three-year contract with Ciclón,opting for a fresh start after failing to secure a place in Racing’s first team.
Cantero’s departure comes after a series of events that saw him linked with clubs in mexico last year, including Cruz Azul and Pachuca. While Racing had initially recognized his potential, with former leaders Claudio Velo and Andrés Lettera recommending him for a first-team contract, a disagreement with his representative reportedly led to his exclusion from the list.
Sources close to the situation suggest that the conflict stemmed from Cantero’s contract demands, particularly in light of the interest from Mexican clubs. This ultimately paved the way for San Lorenzo to swoop in and secure his signature.
Last year, Mexican clubs openly expressed their admiration for Cantero, highlighting his extraordinary skills and potential. “We’ve been tracking Milton Cantero for some time,” a representative from a Mexican club revealed. “We’re very impressed with his qualities and believe he could flourish in our league.We’re exploring the possibility of acquiring him and providing him with the platform to develop further.”
Cantero’s journey began at talleres de Remedios de Escalada,where he made his professional debut at the remarkably young age of 16.He joined Racing’s youth academy almost four years ago, guided by his representative, Martín Sendoa.
Standing at 1.75 meters tall, cantero is known for his technical prowess, vision, and ability to control the midfield. He was a key player for Racing’s reserve team, but his future now lies with San Lorenzo.
Racing officials are hopeful that Cantero’s departure won’t come back to haunt them,but only time will tell if they made the right decision. As Cantero embarks on this new chapter in his career, all eyes will be on him to see if he can live up to his immense potential and become a star for San Lorenzo.

Moderator: Let’s get straight to it. Cantero’s departure from Racing after a disagreement over contract terms seemingly came out of the blue. Were you surprised to see him leave?
Carlos Tevez: To be honest, it’s never a good sign when young talent finds themselves at odds with their club, especially over contract negotiations. You’d think a club like racing, known for nurturing young players, would prioritize securing a talent like Cantero. I’m a bit disappointed by how it unfolded.
