If Allende leaves, Colón want a No 10 and look to Río Cuarto

The Colón leadership continues to move actively in the current transfer market and has already decided what its next tactical priority will be if it frees up a spot in the professional squad. If the club manages to complete the transfer of Leandro Allende (who is currently in talks amid interest from Gimnasia de Mendoza), all efforts will be focused on signing a creative midfielder.

Iván Delfino’s target

The name chosen by the coaching staff led by Iván Delfino is Tomás González, a 27-year-old attacking midfielder who plays for Estudiantes de Río Cuarto.

The Sabalero coach knows González’s qualities perfectly, as he was a key piece under his command during the great campaign that took the Córdoba-based «León» to the top tier of Argentine football. The manager believes that the “10” has exactly the traits needed to bring the jump in quality, leadership, and combination play that his team’s midfield currently lacks.

Key points of the negotiation

The contractual obstacle: The midfielder signed an extension with the Córdoba club through December 2026. For that reason, Colón will have to sit down and negotiate a financial agreement with their counterparts in Río Cuarto in order to secure an early departure.
The Allende factor: Formal moves for the playmaker will begin once Allende’s departure becomes official, which will provide the financial room and the necessary roster space to make a signing.

With interest from both sides on the table, the next few hours will be crucial in the capital of Santa Fe to see whether the arrival of the Sabalero’s new tactical orchestrator is definitively set in motion.
