Who is Alexis Cuello?
Cuello was born on February 18, 2000, in Argentina. He started his career in 2019 at Racing, but, without opportunities, he was loaned to Barracas Central and Instituto.
In 2022, he returned to Racing, but continued without playing. The following year, he transferred to Almagro and, since 2024, he has been the highlight of San Lorenzo.
A frequent starter, the striker has established himself as one of the main names on the Argentine team in recent seasons.
At 25 years old, Alexis Cuello has a contract with the Argentine club until the end of 2027 and is considered a key part of the squad. He has played 73 games for the club, with 14 goals scored and 12 assists, accumulating more than 5 thousand minutes on the field.

Competition and values of Alexis Cuello
In addition to Fluminense, Boca Juniors is also closely monitoring Alexis Cuello’s situation. However, the Rio club appears in a more favorable position in the dispute for the striker.
The signaling made by Fluminense involves higher values than those presented by the Argentine team, which could weigh on San Lorenzo’s decision.
According to Luca Bonafina, from Diário Olé, the expectation is that an official proposal will be presented in the coming days. The amount is around 5 million dollars (around R$ 26.8 million, at current prices).
