Diego Valeri could be set to leave Portland Timbers FC to return to his boyhood club, Lanus, in Argentina. The Timbers legend is under contract with Portland for the 2022 MLS season but reports surfaced during the Timbers’ run to the MLS Cup Final that Valeri might be on his way out of the club.
Cesar Luis Merlo reported yesterday, January 8 that Valeri is “one step away” from joining Lanus. Luis Merlo shared that Valeri has made up his mind and will join the Argentine club once he passes his medical examination. Valeri will reportedly sign a one-year deal with Lanus.
