Diego Colotto outlines Colón recruitment approach and budget-led winter window | OneFootball

"What we go and look for has a higher hit rate than what is offered to us. Offers come from the outside without knowing many internal situations we weigh in each case," said Diego Colotto.

Speaking on ADN on Radio Gol 96.7, he said: "Sporting decisions are made by consensus. We all have to agree, in this case the head coach, sporting management and the directors."

"I meet every agent in that area and, as we said, I work for Colón and for the people. Even if they offered me Haaland and I had no money, I have to answer."

"Players might come to Colón and feel the pressure. In a squad of 25 you can bring one or two, but not base it on that at clubs this big. We watch B Metro, we have analysed lads and there are teams who play well, Comunicación, Excursionistas."

"The premise was to let go in order to bring in, I mean budgets. We moved three players out and brought three in, it was similar in that sense."

"With Iván we agreed something specific, either we brought in a player who would give us the level we were seeking or nothing. We tried until the end."

"In Nacional B it is very difficult to sign players for two or three years, almost all come for one year and it moves a lot. When you go to grounds that are more complicated, if you do not know them, you suffer."
