Colo Colo is urgently looking for a right-back to close his squad for the 2023 season. With the transfer book closing just around the corner, the name of Felipe Campos came up to return to the Monumental. But is his arrival possible?
Chilean soccer lives its last day with the book of passes available to register players. Colo Colo has made eight additions and expects to add its ninth reinforcement during this day with the arrival of Matías de los Santos, who already attended the Monumental Stadium to carry out his first practice.
Despite the large number of new footballers that the Cacique has, Gustavo Quinteros wants to go for more and the right back is a position that makes the man from Santa Fe lose sleep. Finding a replacement for Óscar Opazo has become an impossible missionalthough hours after the transfer window closes, the name of Felipe Campos arose to return to the institution.
But, Can Felipe Campos reach Colo Colo?
After a year at Atlético Tucumán in Argentina, Murci returned to national football and left for Everton de Viña del Mar, having a great participation in the team that, at that time, was led by Francisco Meneghini. Despite having a correct mission, During this season he has not been a protagonist and has had to settle for watching the games from the substitute bench.
This situation caught the attention of the Colo Colo coachwho contacted the former Palestinian and his entourage. In fact, as reported RedGoal, in Macul they would be thinking of repatriating the winger, who can also act as a central defender. However, there is a great impediment for said transaction to be carried out.
The fact that Felipe Campos has been in the summons and on the bench during the games of the rouleteros, immediately makes the possibility of leaving for another Chilean soccer team nil. This, despite some versions that indicate that the prohibition exists once the player played minutes on the field, an issue that was discarded from the same ANFP to Dale Albo.
The case for the second round of the 2023 National Championship is different. Article 16 of the Tournament Bases empowers players to change teams in the middle of the year, regardless of the number of minutes added in their respective clubs. So, If Colo Colo wants to have Felipe Campos, it could only be once the second part of the competition begins.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, there would be a possibility for the defender to reach Pedreros again. The signing of the player could occur if or only if he is used exclusively to compete in the Copa Libertadores, leaving him without action in the National Championship. However, this option is unlikely, since it would mean a considerable drop in the minutes to be played in the semester.
Everton have no intention of letting him go
With everything previously said, there was one version to know. So, From Dale Albo we contacted representatives of the Viñamarino cast and they assured that they have no intention of selling or assigning Felipe Campos. Thus, the possibility of the Murci hitting the return flight to Macul is almost minimal.
Colo Colo, if you want to close your latest addition, you must step on the accelerator since the Pass market ends this Wednesday, February 8 at 11:59 p.m.
