Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata sets lineup for Clausura debut

Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata’s coach Gabriel Pereyra is expected to field a revised starting eleven for the opening match of the Argentine Primera División Clausura. New signings Juan José Pérez and Mateo Seoane have earned spots, while the goalkeeper position may see Harlen Castillo or Agustín Insfrán start. Veteran players such as Nicolás Barros Schelotto and Augusto Max are absent, and the defensive line could feature Germán Conti alongside either Enzo Martínez, Renzo Giampaoli or a returning ex‑Vélez player.

In the team’s first competitive fixture under new manager Hernán Lisi, Gimnasia drew 0‑0 with Unión. Both sides created chances, with goalkeeper Máximo Cabrera making key saves for Gimnasia. The match marked Lisi’s debut in the Torneo Clausura Proyección, and Gimnasia will travel to Córdoba for their next game against Instituto.
