Valencia CF has finalized the arrival of Lucas Beltrán from Fiorentina to bolster its forward line for the current Spanish football season, as reported by journalist Germán García Grova.

Although the official announcement has not been made yet, the deal is fully closed: it is a loan until the end of the season for one million euros, with no purchase option included. With this operation, the Mestalla club secures a key offensive reinforcement after failing to sign Umar Sadiq.

A necessary signing for Valencia's forward line

The team led by Carlos Corberán needed to strengthen its offensive firepower to compete in LaLiga, and found in Lucas Beltrán a player who combines dedication, mobility, and the ability to link up in the final third. Although he did not establish himself as a regular starter in Serie A, his flashes of quality convinced the Valencia coaching staff.

The striker arrives seeking continuity, having accumulated 98 official matches with 16 goals and 9 assists during his time at the Italian club. While these numbers are not exceptional, they demonstrate his ability to contribute in various offensive aspects.

Lucas Beltrán's journey before arriving at Mestalla

Born in Córdoba in 2001, Lucas Beltrán developed in Instituto and then moved to River Plate, where he made his debut in 2018 under Marcelo Gallardo. During an 18-month loan at Colón, he showcased competitive spirit with 6 goals in 39 matches, earning a return to Núñez and becoming a key player for Martín Demichelis in 2023, the season when River was crowned league champions.

In that same year, Fiorentina paid 12.6 million euros to sign him, but he never reached the expected level in Italy. His best campaign was 2024-25, with nearly 2,000 minutes, 5 goals, and 5 assists, still falling short of the anticipated impact in Florence.

Known as "El Vikingo," Beltrán stands at 1.76 meters and is characterized by his intensity and sacrifice on the field. Valued at 18 million euros on Transfermarkt, reflecting his untapped potential, Valencia CF aims to nurture in a demanding league like the Spanish one.

Furthermore, he has been a full international with the Argentina national team, maintaining a close friendship with Julián Álvarez, his former teammate in River Plate's youth categories.

Despite the absence of a purchase option, Valencia is confident that this loan will revive the career of the Cordoban striker and elevate the team's attacking competitiveness. The white-and-black fans hope that Lucas Beltrán will contribute goals and leadership in a season where the club aims to consolidate its European position.
