Bombshell: Villa bids farewell to Independiente Rivadavia after title win | OneFootball

SEBASTIÁN VILLA surprised the football world with an unexpected post on his official social media: he bid farewell to Independiente Rivadavia de Mendoza.

The Colombian forward, the recent champion of the Copa Argentina with the Lepra mendocina jersey, thanked president Daniel Vila for the opportunity in his return to Argentine football, even though the club has not yet confirmed a potential sale.

The 29-year-old attacker, who recently scored the winning penalty in the Copa Argentina against Argentinos Juniors, posted along with a photo where he is seen hugging the official: “Thank you, president, for everything. I will always carry you in my heart. I owe you this life and the next. You are my father.”

Despite Villa's own communication, no official channel of Independiente Rivadavia has confirmed a transfer or loan of the Colombian.

The attacker born in Colombia had joined the Mendoza club in July 2024, with a contract that will only end in mid-2026.

He had joined the Lepra mendocina after a stint at Beroe in Bulgaria, a club he joined following his departure from Boca amid the scandalous context of his issues due to two cases: one for gender violence and another for sexual abuse.
