Colón upbeat as Universitario show interest in Neris | OneFootball

The chance of a possible transfer of José Neris is gaining relevance again in Colón. In Peru, it is said that Universitario de Deportes might consider him as an option to strengthen their offense in 2025, amid the imminent departure of Diego Churín.

The striker's good performance at Montevideo City Torque (16 goals in 34 matches) has put him back in the conversation and reactivated a scenario that is viewed favorably in Santa Fe.

The Uruguayan club has a purchase option for $1,100,000 that they can execute at the end of the year, a figure that would be crucial for Colón, which still holds 65% of the economic rights (the rest belongs to River of Uruguay).

Beyond that, the reality is that Neris's stint with the Sabalera left little to be salvaged from a footballing perspective, so no one imagines a return if no one buys him. His name is inevitably associated with a transfer, the only viable outcome.

Information coming from Lima suggests that the search for a forward with experience and competitiveness led Universitario to look towards Montevideo. Neris's performance has finally reopened a path that seemed closed for Colón, which now awaits decisions with the logical expectation of a possible sale that would allow them to balance their finances and move forward with reconstruction.
