Lucas Robertone, a 28-year-old Argentine midfielder, turned down offers from Thessaloniki's PAOK and Aris during the recent summer transfer window, according to Spanish media. Another club, Velez Sarsfield, also submitted a bid for the player, who was linked with Panathinaikos as well, but could not match Almeria's €5 million valuation. These rejections occurred despite Robertone not being in the plans of his coach, Rubi, at the Spanish club. With a summer move failing to materialize, a January departure is now considered highly probable. Robertone's contract is valid until June 2028, and Transfermarkt lists his market value at an estimated €4 million.
