The Montreal Impact have added Lucas Ontivero, an attacking midfielder on loan from Turkish powerhouse, Galatasaray.
The Montreal Impact have announced that they have acquired Argentine winger Lucas Ontivero from Galatasaray in Turkey. Ontivero most recently played for Olimpija in Slovenia where he was on loan from Galatasaray. The Impact had been linked to Ontivero for some time.
Ontivero is 21 years old, 5'6'' and 142 lbs. He is a quick, elusive, creative player, who can play on either side of the field. Ontivero's talents are primarily offensive, and he would fit well into the 4-3-3 formation the Impact were employing at the end of last season as one of the wide attacking players.
