Vozinha's Move to Colo-Colo Stalls as Morocco Interest Emerges

The unresolved transfer leaves the 40-year-old World Cup standout with leverage because no employment contract has been signed.

Overview

  • Colo-Colo publicly announced a deal but club leaders have said the contract was never signed and the goalkeeper’s arrival to Santiago was postponed while he dealt with personal and immigration issues.
  • Chile’s ANFP unanimously approved a special exception to let Vozinha use his nickname on the jersey, a regulatory change that required amending league rules.
  • Reports say Vozinha missed his scheduled flight to Chile and has received a late, lucrative offer from Moroccan side RS Berkane to reunite with his former national team coach.
  • Colo-Colo officials, including sporting director Jaime Pizarro, say they remain in contact with the player’s agent and describe the move as still possible but not finalized.
  • Vozinha’s World Cup displays sharply raised his market and commercial value and the public, unsigned announcement has left Colo-Colo exposed while the player keeps freedom to choose his next club.
