San Lorenzo club president Matias Lammens has confirmed that the Argentinian outfit are keen on signing Newcastle United defender Fabricio Coloccini.
Coloccini has three-and-a-half years to run on his current contract at St James' Park, but Lammens is hopeful that the 30-year-old may be interested in a return to his boyhood club.
"We know he is a fan and wants to return, so there could be a possibility," Lammens told Radio La Red.
"It's not impossible, but of course the only thing that can accelerate the situation is Fabricio's intentions."
Coloccini has made 168 first-team appearances for Newcastle since joining from Deportivo in August 2008.
