2022 is just beginning and Gustavo Quinteros is already planning the new season of Colo Colo. Pending only a confirmation, the coach received several notifications, of renewals and signings, in the last week of December. The sports management worked to please the coaching staff.
In less than ten days, Daniel Morón unblocked conflicts and achieved success in negotiations that generated anxiety in the Monumental. The champion of America gave a break to the fans, who waited for the continuity of his figures.
The first case occurred with Pablo Solari. On December 22, after a long period of negotiation, Colo Colo made the Argentine’s permanence official for four more years. Although Talleres pressed by announcing other offers for the player, Colo Colo found a formula, which includes 80% of the pass, to keep Solari.
The continuity of Leonardo Gil was confirmed three days later and that of Vicente Pizarro on the penultimate day of the year. Morón was key in both negotiations. Before, in addition, the contract extensions of Emiliano Amor, César Fuentes and Bryan Soto had been confirmed.
That effectiveness also occurred with reinforcements. The sports management reached agreements with Cristian Zavala and Esteban Pavez, and the two footballers were made official four days apart. The former Melipilla even had his first day at the Monumental.
The mentioned players come to cover two positions required by Quinteros to play the National Championship, the Libertadores and the Chile Cup.
For now, only the ratification of ‘9’ is missing. And Morón also advances: he has practically tied up Juan Martín Lucero. The former Vélez “is super close”, as reported to AS, and could become a white reinforcement.
