✍️The saga ends: Alfredo Morelos signs three-year deal with Nacional | OneFootball

The novel has come to an end. After intense negotiations to part ways with Santos of Brazil, Alfredo Morelos has sealed his commitment to Atlético Nacional. The 29-year-old striker from Córdoba joins as a free agent and has signed a contract that ties him to the Paisa club for the next three seasons, becoming the star reinforcement for Diego Arias’s project in 2026.

Goal-scoring power for the attack

The arrival of "El Búfalo" has sparked massive excitement among the fans after an outstanding 2025, where he recorded 21 goals and 14 assists in 64 matches. Morelos, who had been training on his own while resolving his bureaucratic situation in Brazil, will join training at the Guarne facility this very Monday. His presence promises to boost an offense that already showed its capability after the recent 4-0 thrashing of Boyacá Chicó.

The debut on the horizon

Although the team shone in the first matchday with an exhibition from Edwin Cardona, the coaching staff hopes to have Morelos available as soon as possible. It is estimated that the striker could be available for the second round of the Liga BetPlay, joining a squad that aims to consolidate its dominance at the local level and make a strong push in the international challenges of the year.
