In Millonarios a novel was opened around the future of Álvaro Montero. In the last week, there was talk of the interest that Estudiantes de La Plata had in incorporating the Guajiro goalkeeper and the Argentine team even presented offers, but the Bogotá team remained firm in its position of not letting him go.
According to Diego Rueda, director of El VBar Caracol, the capital club did not like the offer that was made and, therefore, made the decision not to let the 28-year-old goalkeeper leave, who renewed his contract last October for three more years.
“Montero is not leaving. Millonarios did not like the offer that was made. And although Millonarios did begin to look at alternatives because he was negotiating, Ospina is not coming to Colombia,” Rueda said in principle, limiting at the same time the ruling out of the option of the Antioquia goalkeeper of the National Team who entered the wave of rumors as a possible replacement. .
“Ospina, the priority is to fulfill the contract for six months and then go play in the MLS. He is going to take advantage of the tour for his representatives, handling several possibilities. To Millonarios, at least this semester he is not coming. “Montero, unless circumstances change a lot, will not leave,” the journalist added.
What was Estudiantes’ offer for Montero?
César Augusto Londoño, director of El Pulso del Fútbol, who agrees with the information that Millonarios does not intend to let its starting goalkeeper go, previously announced the values presented by Estudiantes to acquire Montero’s services.
