Fiorentina received many advantageous offers for Lucas Beltran, but the club decided to keep him, believing he can contribute significantly this year.

Lucas Beltran, who is likely to participate in the upcoming Olympics with his national team, might be absent for Fiorentina's entire summer retreat. Initially, it was discussed that Fiorentina might not agree to release their player, but Beltran clarified the situation in an interview with DSports Argentina.

Lucas Beltran scored his tenth goal for Fiorentina against Bruges, triggering a part of the bonus that Fiorentina has to give to River Plate. To receive the remaining part of the additional 12.5 million, River Plate will have to hope that Fiorentina wins the Conference League. As per the agreement, other bonuses will come in case of a trophy win and qualification for the next Europa League, both objectives would be achieved with a win in Athens.
