The transfer market in Colombian football does not stop and the clubs seek to strengthen their squad for the start of the championship, which will be the weekend of January 16 and 17.

One of the clubs that has announced few moves is Atlético Nacional. To date, only Jonathan Marulanda and Danovis Banguero, both defenders, have arrived.

For several weeks, Alexandre Guimaraes confirmed the search for men in different positions and one of them is a center forward, because currently he only has Jefferson Duque.

Patricio Cucchi, Argentine forward who was on loan in Santa Fe, announced in networks the end of its link with red and now it must return to green antioqueno, but it is not known if it will remain. This was expressed in his social networks before traveling:

However, in recent days two other foreigners have sounded strongly for Nacional and in social networks they have flirted with their arrival at this institution.

The first one was Marcos Riquelme, Argentine forward who played in 2020 with Bolívar from Bolivia. With that club he was a great protagonist and although he did not finish champion, he was the top scorer of the previous season and one of the South American players with the most scores of the year.

His sister, Micaela, has been exchanging messages with a Nacional fan page and it is not alien to the possibility that Marcos will join the most time Colombian soccer champion.

Cristian Palacios is the other player who has also echoed his possible arrival at ‘Verdolaga’. He is a Uruguayan striker who played in 2020 with Unión Española de Chile, a club with which he scored 15 goals in the last season.

Before the end of the year, Santiago Perdiguero, president of the ‘austral’ team, expressed that the footballer would not continue there because “finally, he goes to Atlético Nacional. There has been no way to renew it, not even until this championship ends“.

According to him, the Colombian leaders made “an investment” for the Uruguayan forward and “they want him now.” However, the ‘charrúa’ pass belongs to the Mexican Puebla and it is with them that all the negotiation would have been done.

In his social networks, Palacios himself shared some stories in which they affirm that he will arrive in Colombia in the next few days to join Nacional.

The green directives have not ruled on the matter and will continue to maintain total secrecy in the face of the possibility of reinforcements for 2021
