Ian Lucas will join a new Telefe format for the 2026 World Cup and the leading figure who will accompany him has been announced

about the project.

Beyond the sporting event, the cycle will work as a test to evaluate Ian Lucas's driving performance.

“I think it's a pilot test to see how he handles himself on TV,” said Latorre. Along the same lines, he said that, if the result is positive, the influencer could secure his own place in the channel's grid

.

“If he is doing well, he has the promise of signing a contract next year to conduct Telefe in prime time, in an unreleased show that is not in the

pipeline,” he revealed.

Ian Lucas got tired of being associated with Evangelina Anderson. In parallel with

his professional growth, Ian Lucas also spoke about his personal life after media crossings with Evangelina Anderson, with whom he shared tense moments during his time

on MasterChef Celebrity.

When asked by an infama chronicler, the influencer was blunt: “One hundred! There are a lot of nice things to talk about, but that's it,” he replied when asked about the subject

.

In addition, he made it clear that he would not seek to resume that link: “I wouldn't give him a second chance, although an apology is very much accepted. It's a closed case.”

Ian Lucas is preparing to take an important leap in his career at Telefe. After weeks of speculation about his future on the screen, it was confirmed that he will be part of a new format linked to the 2026 World Cup, where he will play a central role alongside one of the channel's most established figures.

The information was revealed by Yanina Latorre in Save Yourself Who Can (América TV), where she announced that the young influencer will not only remain linked to the signal, but will have a key opportunity to position himself as a driver.

The project that will take him to the 2026 World Cup

As detailed in the cycle, Ian Lucas will co-host a new edition of Around the World, the historic travel program led by Marley. Unlike other seasons, this time the format will have a strong international imprint linked to the 2026 World Cup

.

“The other day I said that Telefe wants Ian Lucas to drive and indeed this year he will co-drive,” said Yanina Latorre. He added: “It's going to be with Marley, not as a guest but as a co-host

.”

The duo will tour different cities during the World Cup, with the participation of special guests. Among the names that could be added is that of Susana Giménez, which further raises expectations
