Colo Colo is about to close a major reinforcement in the pass marketwith his mind set on the fight in the National Championship and in the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores 2024.
Lucas Di Yorio He is the forward they are looking for in Cacique, who would arrive at the Monumental stadium to solve the big goal problem that coach Jorge Almirón’s squad has.
But the outlook does not seem so easy for the Argentine, according to historians who have been in Colo Colo, in conversation with Redgol, where they point out that there will be no time for acclimatization.
For the same reason, he, now former Athletico Paranaense of Brazil, must be fine-tuned to grab the starting jersey, because the times do not allow him to wait for dates, where they highlight that his time at Everton is important.

Di Yorio has to perform immediately
It was Gustavo de Luca who approved the return of Lucas Di Yorio to Chilean football, where he assures that due to experience he is a player who can give results from the beginning.
“I saw him play at Everton, then he moved on to Mexican football. He has more experience, so he will come in handy. I think he is a top player, he has experience and will come in handy,” he commented.
But he warns that there will be no time to wait for him, so he will have pressure from the beginning to take center stage in Colo Colo.
“For an armed team, adding a scorer has to work from the start. He is a boy who came to Chilean soccer, scored goals and in Mexico too, so he is qualified,” he said.
After Everton, Di Yorio moved to León from the Pachuca Group in Mexico.
The Argentine will be the solution in attack
On the other hand, Ricardo Dabrowski, former forward and coach of Colo Colo, believes that if Jorge Almirón gave the green light for the Argentine striker, it is because he sees the conditions to change the course of the Albos’ attack.
“I think that to the extent that Almirón analyzed and according to the characteristics that he believes a leading striker should have, he surely requested it and I hope it comes to fruition. If he chose it, he surely considers it what he needs. Let it be a contribution where Colo Colo has been lacking, which is in the settlement,” he explained.
In that sense, he details that it is a new proposal for a position on the field where there is still no one who is the protagonist, so it opens the doors for him.
“We had seen it at the beginning of the year in Colo Colo and now it comes precisely to solve a problem and I hope it can be realized, but that the club takes advantage of its capacity. It is good to generate, to handle the ball, but you have to throw it in,” he concluded.
