The outlook for Atlético Nacional is starting to clear up ahead of the 2026 season. After weeks of intense negotiations and rumors placing him outside the country, it has been confirmed that Alfredo Morelos will continue wearing the verdolaga jersey. The striker, who has become the offensive pillar of the team since his arrival in 2024, will remain the main goal-scoring threat for both national and international challenges.
According to transfer specialist journalist César Luis Merlo, a full verbal agreement has already been reached between the parties. Although Santos of Brazil — the owner of his rights — initially sought a permanent sale instead of extending the loan, the efforts of the Antioquian board have paid off. Currently, lawyers are working on drafting a contract that will link the "Buffalo" to the institution for the next three years.

The continuity of Morelos is news celebrated by both fans and the coaching staff. With four trophies to his name since arriving in MedellĂn, his impact on the attack has been decisive. The club expects to make the official announcement in the coming days, thus securing its most valuable asset to pursue another title in the Liga Betplay and to make a mark in the Copa Sudamericana.
