New year, new life for Deportivo Independiente Medellín, who will face the Colombian League and the South American Cup in the first semester. The president of the Antioquia club Daniel Ossa spoke about the transfer market at the DIM.
“With Felipe Pardo everything was ready, a great human being arrives, with a lot of experience and he is going to contribute a lot to the institution. Felipe is a free agent, he came to the institution for a year with the possibility of expanding for a longer time, we will see that throughout this year, “said the Antioquia manager.
Furthermore, “these returning players are going to contribute to Colombian football. We are putting together an important squad, where we maintained a base, we have experienced players and young people who have emerged from the club ”.
Regarding the visit that Germán Cano had in Colombian territory, Ossa indicated that “he was here in the city, he visited us and we were with him on two occasions, he is very happy in Brazil, he has done very well. But with the hope that in one or two years we will have him again. Germán (Cano) plans to retire at the institution and wants to come to live in Medellín. So let’s wait a few years to see what happens ”.
Regarding the transfer market, Daniel pointed out that “we wanted to maintain a large percentage of the squad, men like Bryan Castrillón, Ever Valencia are returning, we are going to wait for Miguel Camargo, we hope to have Andrés Ricaurte, we are missing two details so that he can be with us . We are evaluating the issue of a striker, we have reviewed several names in Colombia and abroad, we are not going to rush. The market is difficult, but we want to make a good decision ”.
Finally, he spoke about the possibility that Juan Fernando Caicedo could return to the club. “With Juan Fernando (Caicedo), he had the intention of returning. We communicate with Deportes Tolima, but they have a contract for a year and a half more, it is a negotiation practically ruled out “.
