A version that is rumored in the Cali press is that the 35-year-old forward contacted Juan Carlos Osorio to see if he had a chance to reach América de Cali, but the answer he would have had was negative. Although there may be several factors that prevented his arrival, it is most likely the issue of age, as happened with Hugo Rodallega.

This was what the America coach gave it to understand, in dialogue with Directv Sports. “Hugo Rodallega is a very good player, but like someone else who contacted me, I deeply admire and I must call tomorrow to thank him deeply, I told them that I had to think very well. Yesterday another new one called for the same thing: to want to get here to finish off his sports career. It seems to me that the Colombian players I am talking about have the right to think that they can come here, but it is up to me to give continuity to the players who are, in this case Adrián Ramos“.

Although, it has not been possible to confirm that one of the players who called is ‘Teo’, that is the version that is spoken where the player would not have a place. It was also explained that one of the reasons for not accepting the arrival of Gutiérrez and Rodallega is due to the issue of ranks in the dressing room, where Adrián Ramos is the main reference and they want to avoid “ego duels.”
