Santos is closely following San Lorenzo's Manuel Insaurralde, a 27-year-old Argentine midfielder whose performances in the Copa Sudamericana against the Brazilian club drew their interest. Insaurralde is on a list of potential signings for coach Cuca, and representatives from Santos have contacted the player's agents to understand his contractual situation. His current deal with San Lorenzo is set to expire in December of this year, which means he will be able to negotiate and sign a pre-contract with any team from July 1 to leave as a free agent upon its conclusion. San Lorenzo's new board must address his contract situation to avoid losing him without receiving a transfer fee. At present, the situation is described as only interest and monitoring from Santos. Insaurralde joined San Lorenzo in July 2018 and has made eight domestic league appearances in the 2025/2026 season, scoring one goal. He has 7 caps for the Argentina U20 national team and his current Transfermarkt market value is €1.00m.
