After the season's end and with a focus on planning for 2026, the Universidad de Chile Club has officially announced the departure of four members of its first men's team. These departures mark the beginning of a deep restructuring of the blue squad, aiming to renew parts after a 2025 marked by winning the Super Cup.

The Farewell of the Goal Scorers

The offensive zone is the most affected with the departures of Rodrigo Contreras and Lucas Di Yorio. Both forwards have completed their respective loans. Contreras returns to Deportes Antofagasta after playing 41 matches, while the Argentine Di Yorio goes back to Athletico Paranaense in Brazil after a season of 43 matches. Both bid farewell having lifted the Super Cup trophy this year.
