💥Flat-out no: Colo Colo’s big dream shattered | OneFootball

What promised to be the big market coup for Colo Colo has completely vanished. The Chilean club was in negotiations to bring in the experienced Argentine goalkeeper Esteban Andrada, but Real Zaragoza, the owner of his contract, has shut down any possibility of his departure with a resounding "no."

The Change of Scenario in Spain

Although the former Boca Juniors and Monterrey goalkeeper was looking favorably at his move to Macul, his situation on the Iberian Peninsula took a drastic turn in recent weeks. According to his representative, Luciano Nicotra, the arrival of a new coach at Zaragoza transformed Andrada's role, who went from uncertainty to becoming the undisputed figure of the team.

"He Won't Leave Under Any Circumstances"

The definitive statement came from Txema Indias, the sporting director of the Aragonese club, who communicated to the player's agency that the goalkeeper is currently non-transferable. "His departure is very complicated from Zaragoza's side," admitted the agent in a conversation with ADN Deportes.

Faced with this refusal, the "Cacique" management will have to seek new alternatives between the posts to face the 2026 season, seeing their desire to add international stature to their squad frustrated.
