Matías Arezo on the purchase of his contract: “I've been looking forward to this; it means a lot to me that they're making this investment in me.”

Matías Arezo held a press conference around noon on Wednesday at the Campeón del Siglo stadium after Peñarol exercised its option to purchase his contract, thereby securing him until 2029. "It’s something I’ve been hoping for since my previous stint here; today it’s finally happening, and it’s really wonderful. I’m proud to be at a club as big as this one.” “The fact that they’re making this investment in me is very important; it shows the trust they’ve placed in me since I first arrived.” The Mirasol club also posted a video on its social media showing a happy Arezo before the start of a training session, in which the player himself says: “Now it’s official—three more years of Arezo at Peñarol.”
