Lautaro Blanco has completed his move to Elche.

Blanco arrives from Rosario Central, with Elche paying €2m for the fullback.

The deal had been closed over the summer, though it was agreed the 23 year-old would complete the season in Argentina before moving to Europe.

Blanco said: "When they told me the opportunity to come I did not hesitate, Elche's possibility appeared and luckily it was possible to materialise, I had to continue until December in Central which was very nice. Happy for this great step."

Blanco has signed a deal to 2027.
