Despite the fact that Talleres’s position with his defender has been clear, in the albos they will look for formulas to be able to please their coach who wants him yes or yes to replace Óscar Opazo.
Colo Colo needs to put his foot on the accelerator to close his squad for the 2023 season once and for all. That is why they hope to fasten the arrival of Leandro Benegas this Friday, in order to focus on one of the priorities of the coaching staff, which is to have to the right side that fills the void left by Óscar Opazo.
Gustavo Quinteros’ chosen one is Matías Catalán, an Argentine player from Talleres de Córdoba who is a Chilean national. The strategist is not only seduced by his good performance last year, but also its polyfunctionalityand also can play as central defender.
They will make an effort for Catalan
Although from the T box they have been blunt in pointing out that the footballer is not moving, in the last meeting of the Blanco y Negro board of directors they decided to go ahead with the negotiations and will look for formulas to integrate him into the squad.
It will not be an easy operation considering that the Cordoba invested to keep the defender, although the fact that his pass is divided into parts with the Pachuca Group, can help to get an agreement. Likewise, the albos offer them the chance to play the Copa Libertadores, something that always seduces the players.
Although it is the obsession of Gustavo Quinteros, and for this reason it is the first option, in Colo Colo they also look at Guillermo Soto, recently acquired by Huracán. Meanwhile, Nayel Mehssatou continues to be an alternative, although her youth leaves some doubts in the coaching staff.
Matías Catalán comes from having a great individual campaign with Talleres, in which he played 32 games, scored two goals and distributed one assist.
