Morelos notifies Santos over unpaid wages, requests contract termination | OneFootball

Santos may start 2026 with a legal dispute. Forward Alfredo Morelos has notified the club due to lack of payments and wants to terminate his contract.

The Colombian, who was on loan to Atlético Nacional-COL, was supposed to report back to CT Rei Pelé this Friday with the rest of the squad, but he did not show up.

Morelos is upset with the lack of payments and no longer wants to play for Santos. The information was initially reported by Ademir Quintino.

Frustrating tenure

Morelos was signed by Peixe in mid-2023 with high expectations, but he never managed to establish himself in the team. He played 20 matches for the Alvinegro Praiano, starting nine of them, scoring four goals and providing one assist.

The forward was loaned to Atlético Nacional in mid-2024. With the team, he played 91 matches, scored 32 goals, and provided 11 assists.

Morelos has a contract with Santos until the end of 2026.
