Sangalli very close to Real Zaragoza as he eyes a quick yes
Marco Sangalli is nearing a move to Real Zaragoza and both sides want to settle his future before Tuesday’s deadline.
Marco Sangalli, a free agent after finishing his deal with Racing, is very close to joining Real Zaragoza, Sport reports. The player’s circle believes the move can happen in the coming hours, fitting the market’s end on Tuesday at 23:59.
Final hours of the window
The intent behind the operation is to get it done quickly: both Zaragoza and the full-back want their future sorted before Tuesday, with this Monday seen as an even better moment.
Why the deal is tilting his way
According to Sport, Sangalli already has the Zaragoza offer in place—a one-season contract. Sport adds that, despite any lingering interest from teams in the second tier (the Burgos link via Lizancos is mentioned), the right-back is essentially decided to play Primera RFEF football with Zaragoza.
The outlet also recalls his recent numbers: last campaign he played 37 matches (starting 15) and scored four goals for Racing, where he signed off after contributing to the club’s promotion to LaLiga.
Finally, Sport says the step forward for Sangalli has pushed aside the Arnau Campeny option. The Barcelona-based club (Europa) would ask €80,000 for Campeny, and Zaragoza—per Sport—won’t pay anything near that figure. If everything runs smoothly, Sangalli would be the player to close the deal soon.
