Lucas Esteves News: Joins Atletico San Luis

Esteves transferred to Atletico San Luis after leaving Brazilian team Gremio in the winter transfer window, the club announced Thursday.

Esteves has arrived in the Potosino team as a defensive-minded alternative to Juan Sanabria at left-back. The Brazilian boasts vast experience, having been part of the Palmeiras squad that won Copa Libertadores titles in 2020 and 2021, although he had little participation in those competitions. He also had a short stint in Colorado Rapids in MLS, and most recently he made 10 Brasileirao appearances (eight starts) for Gremio, averaging 2.2 clearances and 1.2 tackles per game in the latter period. He'll compete for a starting role but may split playing time with Sanabria and Aldo Cruz.
