The adventure of the young Mexican Eugenio Pizzuto with the Lille of France has come to an end. By mutual agreement, club and player decided to put an end to the bond that had kept them together since August 2019. Unfortunately, the midfielder from San Luis Potosí was never able to debut with the first team.
Pizzuto, who represented Mexico in the World Cup U17 of 2019 and was Bronze Ball in said World Cup fair, signed with Lille as a free agent after the expiration of his contract with Pachuca, the club in which he was trained, but in which he only played a couple of commitments.
In a brief statement, Lille wished the Mexican success for the rest of his career: “ Arriving in the North in August 2019 from Pachuca (Mexico), Eugenio Pizzuto (550) has had a few appearances with Group Pro 2 since his arrival. He had been called up to the pros several times last season. LOSC wishes him the best of luck in the rest of his career“.
🤝 The LOSC and Eugenio Pizzuto decided on a common agreement to meet the end of the contract who joined the club lillois au joueur mexicain.

Eugenio Pizzuto suffered a fracture of the tibia and fibula in January 2020. That’s where his nightmare began. He signed with Lille as a long-term project in a team from which very interesting young talents often emerge.
He spent months recovering and never managed to establish himself in the French club, which also did not offer him more options in the first team.
Beyond this tough adventure, his career is just beginning. With 19 years old and in full condition, Pizutto will surely enjoy numerous options to continue developing.
