The Godoy effect at Aldosivi: his arrival ends Leandro Fernández's hopes

The Primera Nacional transfer market is starting to heat up, and Aldosivi is shaping up to be one of the main players. The club’s management has Matías Godoy’s signing at a very advanced stage, the versatile 24-year-old attacking midfielder and forward who currently plays for Colón de Santa Fe, a club with which he is already negotiating an early termination of his contract.

Godoy, who had not been getting the playing time he expected at El Sabalero (he has made just 8 appearances so far in the 2026 season), was left out of coach Ezequiel Medrán’s latest squad for the visit to Defensores de Belgrano, which effectively sealed the end of his spell in Santa Fe and opened the door to new opportunities.

An important career despite his youth

At just 24 years old, the Ceres-born attacker already has extensive experience in Argentine and international football that could bring quality and options to Aldosivi’s attack:

  1. Beginnings and National Team: Coming through Atlético de Rafaela, he had a spell with Dinamo Zagreb II of Croatia and was part of Argentina’s Under-17 youth national teams.
  2. Top-flight experience: He has worn the shirts of Argentinos Juniors, Instituto de Córdoba, Talleres de Córdoba, Estudiantes de La Plata, and Central Córdoba de Santiago del Estero.

His ability to adapt both as a wide midfielder and as an out-and-out forward makes him a highly attractive piece for the Mar del Plata side’s system.

The side effect: Leandro Fernández is out

The imminent arrival of Matías Godoy is having a major impact on the other negotiations being carried out by the Port club. This transfer would all but shut the door on Leandro Fernández, the experienced striker who had been strongly linked as a reinforcement for the team, but whose chances are fading given the impending agreement with the former Estudiantes player.

In the coming hours, Godoy is expected to finalize his departure from Colón and travel to Mar del Plata, undergo a medical, and sign the contract that will formally make him an Aldosivi signing for the second half of the tournament.
