Colón eye late swoop for «Perrito» Barrios to close window | OneFootball

Although the Argentine football transfer window officially closes this Thursday, Colón is not stepping away from the market and is targeting a name that sparks excitement in the Sabalero world: Nahuel “Perrito” Barrios. Even though the negotiation is shaping up to be “difficult” from both a financial and contractual standpoint, the Santa Fe management has already made initial inquiries to try to add the talented midfielder from San Lorenzo.

Regulatory engineering plays in favor of Iván Delfino’s team. While the general deadline ends tomorrow, the Sabalero has an extended slot until March 10. This benefit was activated after Nicolás Talpone’s move to Estudiantes de Río Cuarto, giving the club additional time to negotiate calmly and try to unlock the arrival of the 27-year-old player.

The Present of “Perrito”

Nahuel Barrios is going through a transitional period at San Lorenzo. While under Ruben Darío Insua’s tenure he was an irreplaceable piece and the creative axis of the team, the rotation of coaches and tactical changes have taken away the absolute prominence he once had. Currently, the player is seeking more playing time to recover his best form—the one that made him one of the hardest players to mark in local “one-on-one” situations.

Statistics That Attract

Colón’s interest is no coincidence. Barrios’ profile fits the coaching staff’s need for individual flair:

The operation is complex due to the player’s contract and market value, but in Santa Fe they trust that Talpone’s extra slot and Barrios’ desire for more minutes will be the keys to sealing what could be one of the most high-profile signings in the division.
