Tigres still searching for Pizarro’s replacement | OneFootball

Tigres has been affected defensively after the departure of Guido Pizarro, who now serves as the team's coach.

For this reason, the club is actively searching for a new central defender in this transfer window.

Pizarro, during his time as a Tigres player, won multiple titles and ended his career playing as a center-back, a position he mastered in his final years with the club.

Now, the player targeted to reinforce the defense is Kevin ‘Cumbia’ Lomónaco, a tall and high-performing Argentine defender who has attracted attention in Europe.

His current stint at Independiente and his call-up to the Argentine National Team make him an appealing option.

According to journalist Fernando Carlos, Lomónaco is very close to signing with Tigres.

At 23 years old, his arrival would be key to filling the vacancy left by Pizarro and strengthening the feline defense ahead of the Apertura 2025.
