Atlético Nacional is starting the semester under unusual circumstances, with several postponed matches and a significant overhaul of its roster. Following a crucial victory over América de Cali, the team, guided by Diego Arias, is gearing up to take on Fortaleza on February 12th, bringing exciting news for fans: the long-awaited debut of their latest major signing.
Arrival of “Chicho” Arango and Important Contract Renewals
The club’s communications team has confirmed that Cristian “Chicho” Arango’s transfer should be finalized soon. The forward, who joined from the MLS, was unable to participate in the classic match due to documentation issues, but he is now set to enhance the team’s offense alongside Alfredo Morelos, who recently extended his contract with the club.

Departure of Young Talents to North America
On the outgoing transfer front, the “Verdolaga” club is finalizing arrangements for the exits of several promising young players. Emilio Aristizábal, following his time with Fortaleza, is in advanced talks to join Toronto FC in Canada. Additionally, defender Juan José Arias is likely to head to Real Salt Lake in the MLS, a departure that compounds the already confirmed sale of Royer Caicedo and raises concerns about central defense. Furthermore, the club is exploring options regarding Juan David Obando, who may also exit in the near future.
