Technical Director Alex Kroes: "We're pleased that Gaston has returned to full fitness and resumed group training after a long rehabilitation period. As is well known, we aim to create space within the squad, and due to the competition for his position, we have mutually agreed to send him out on loan. The South American club offers Gaston not only the opportunity to gain match rhythm and playing time but also brings him closer to his roots. We hope this will help him rediscover his old form. We have wished Gaston great success in his new challenge in Brazil!"
