Colón: Alan Bonansea set to join, what are the terms of his deal? | OneFootball

Alan Bonansea is the center forward that Colón is aiming for, whose leaders have accelerated their efforts to secure his services.

Colón has decisively started making moves in the transfer market, and the search for a forward appears as one of the top priorities. In this scenario, the name Alan Bonansea has gained traction and has become the main target to strengthen the offense after the failed attempt to sign Martin Pino, who will ultimately stay at Godoy Cruz.

The Sabalero looks at its squad and detects an evident shortcoming: in the center forward position, they currently only have young players and Facundo Castro, whose continuity was in doubt until the last moment. This reality pushed the management to firmly seek a "9" who can offer immediate guarantees, even though the radar includes other alternatives.

Bonansea fits this profile. At 29 years old, the attacker born in Villa Gobernador Gálvez arrives with solid credentials in the Primera Nacional. In the last season, defending the colors of Patronato, he played 31 matches in the regular phase, scored 11 goals, and provided two assists, with a high volume of minutes reflecting regularity and relevance. Additionally, he was a starter and completed the only match of the Reducido that the team from Entre Ríos faced.

His physique —1.91 meters— and his style of play make him a clear reference inside the area. At Colón, they particularly value his aerial game, his ability to hold the ball with his back to the goal, and his effectiveness in the final meters, qualities the team needs to incorporate to give a new shape to their attack.

Trained at Lanús, Bonansea debuted in the First Division and then had a broad journey through Argentine promotion, with stints at Central Norte, Almagro, Mitre de Santiago del Estero, and Atlético de Rafaela. Along this path, he shaped his identity as a penalty area forward before gaining experience at Rosario Central and abroad, where he played for Lokomotiva Zagreb in Croatia and Mushuc Runa in Ecuador.

According to Radio Gol, with information from Dario Pignata at ADN Gol, everything seems to be on track for the former Patronato forward to become a new player for Colón, with the transfer set to be a one-year loan.
