Yerry Mina could not consolidate himself at Fiorentina, and that is why the Italian team decided to open the doors to loan him to another club. Thus, Cagliari Calcio officially announced this Thursday, February 1, the hiring of the Colombian defender.
Mina signed a contract until June 30, 2024, with an extension option in favor of the Club for one more season.
“Physically strong central defender, 195 centimeters tall, endowed with good individual technique and tactical intelligence, skilled in the setting phase, his main prerogatives are marking and aerial play: taking advantage of his height, elevation and choice of pace in the headbutt, it is effective. Both in defense and attack in set-piece situations,” the club says about the Colombian.
Mina hopes to leave behind the injuries that hampered his performance at Fiorentina, where he was only able to play seven games, four in Serie A, two in the Italian Cup and one in the Conference League.
Mina’s new team is today in the relegation zone in Italy: it occupies box 18, with 18 points, with a worse goal difference than Hellas Verona and Udinese, who today would save the category.
