Off to Paraná? Diego Armando Díaz in advanced talks with Patronato | OneFootball

The transfer market is starting to heat up, and one of the names making noise in the region is Diego Armando Díaz. The striker from Chaco appears to have his immediate future close to being resolved away from Santa Fe, as he is not among head coach Leonardo Carol Madelón’s main plans. Given this situation, the forward would look very favorably on a change of scenery to secure the playing time he needs so much.

According to journalist Darío Pignata on the ADN program on Radio Gol 96.7, talks for the striker to join Patronato de Paraná are at a very advanced stage. “El Patrón” has had a long-standing interest in the player, and everything suggests the negotiations will reach a successful conclusion this time.

The reason for the departure: no playing time in the top flight

The search for a new destination is strictly due to the lack of continuity the striker has experienced this season in Argentina’s Primera División.

The numbers lay out the reality the player is going through:

105 minutes played so far this year.

7 matches played, always coming off the bench.

1 goal scored in his limited appearances, a header on February 2 in the 4-0 rout of Gimnasia y Esgrima de Mendoza.

For the striker, this move to the Entre Ríos club represents a key opportunity to relaunch his career.

Although there was initially speculation about options abroad, the possibility of heading over to Entre Ríos became the absolute priority for the player and his representatives. In the coming hours, the final details of the deal are expected to be settled so the Chaco native can join Patronato’s coaching staff.
