El Huaso would be thinking of a change of scenery and one of the options that is getting louder every time is Colo Colo. In an interview with a media outlet in 2007, Isla confessed that he would like to play for Cacique.
Colo Colo prepares to finish the first round of the National Championship. In addition, between this month and June he will seek his way to the Copa Libertadores Round of 16. Of course, from the Alba leadership and the coaching staff they are already thinking of names to reinforce the squad for the second semester. One of the names that is hanging around the corridors of the Monumental Stadium is that of Mauricio Isla.
The two-time American footballer would be thinking of changing the scene. In fact, as DaleAlbo revealed a few days ago, Isla’s environment would have contacted the Colocolino coaching staff to get closer to Macul. This would coincide with Gustavo Quinteros’s plan to strengthen the right-back position at Cacique.
But, the story between the Huaso and the Eternal Champion is not new. It was during 2007 when the current UC player was in Udinese and gave an interview to Once upon a time. In said conversation, the 34-year-old player was not taken into account in Italy and He openly acknowledged that he would choose Popular to play.
“The best thing would be to start in Chile and more in a club like Colo Colo. I spoke a while ago with Claudio (Borghi) about the subject. Colo Colo is the biggest team in Chile and I get along very well with the players I know from there, and if I arrive it will be a great happiness for my family and my friends, who are all from Colo Colo”confessed at that time a young man, Isla.
The chances of Mauricio Isla reaching Colo Colo
The winger has a link with Universidad Católica until December 2024. In this way, there are two ways of a possible arrival of the Huaso to Macul. The first is that both clubs negotiate and reach an agreement so that the defender adds to the work of Gustavo Quinteros, while the other formula is that the footballer himself arranges his departure from the university cast.
This way, It only remains to wait for the transfer market to begin to find out if the possible arrival of Mauricio Isla materializes and Gustavo Quinteros achieves a footballer with experience in that position.
