Lolo Miranda and Emiliano Vecchio are two players that Fernando Gago cannot count on in this semester of Racing. Both midfielders suffered cruciate ligament tears at the end of the 2022 season and should currently be in the recovery stages. But something is not right. While Señor Fútbol complies with what was agreed with the club, to work twice in Racing and the rest in a private way, the former Independiente is not in the same vein. According to what they told Racing de Alma, Lolo Miranda does not appear and Fernando Gago is angry.
The last time Lolo Miranda stepped on Racing
The last time Lolo Miranda stepped foot in Racing and saw Gago was the day of the game with Belgrano, in the celebrations for winning the two National Cups. Since January 29, then, at the Academy they do not know what is the life of the midfielder. “He did not appear anymore. He should be doing the rehabilitation work but nothing is known,” they explained to this portal. Even Juan Cáceres, a close friend of the player, was consulted on more than one occasion. For Gago, all these misconducts are really serious. And they are not something strange. Last year, Fernando Gago’s coaching staff did not like any misconduct that Lolo Miranda would have had after losing against River.
That is why it was not surprising that, in addition to not starting against Tigre for the Champions Trophy, Lolo did not even have minutes of action when the game lasted 120 minutes. Although he later added minutes against Boca and ended up getting injured, the truth is that the former Independiente was almost a fixture for the club leaders to try for next year. It is not the first time that Pintita excluded the intern for these reasons and he would like to have a more careful squad for next season.

Regarding his relationship with Racing, Lolo Miranda has a contract until December 2023. He signed it after the Avellaneda club bought, in two parts, his entire record for $3,000,000 from the Tijuana of Mexico. Even before the serious injury, it was very likely that if he found an offer in this transfer market that has just closed, the midfielder would end up leaving Avellaneda. He had already been very close to leaving in the last summer of 2022, but a chat with Fernando Gago had changed his plans. After some misconduct, everything suggested that his departure was close.
“Since I stepped foot in the club, I dreamed of being a champion with this shirt. We achieved it after a lot of effort and overcoming a few obstacles,” wrote Lolo Miranda after the night of celebrations against Belgrano on his social networks, the last time he appeared in the club. And he added: “I know I’m going to come back stronger afterwards. Have a great 2023 and hang in there @RacingClub.” How will this story between Lolo Miranda and Racing continue?
