It may be the most unfair story: not long ago he was the great figure, the rising idol, the most intelligent investment in history, when he lifted the Europa League trophy. Today no one at Eintracht Frankfurt seems to remember.
Rafael Santos Borré went, in the blink of an eye, from being one of the best recruits in the Bundesliga to desperately looking for his way out. How everything changed in a few months.
The truth is that from the leading role, the man from Barranquilla went on to a very secondary role, all at the expense of Kolo Muani, the French attacker who replaced him in the starting position and who also comes from signing a good World Cup in Qatar, in which he was a finalist. . Throughout the season he adds just over 700 minutes in 24 games, 17 of them as a substitute. Clearly, the exit is his only option.
But, apparently, Frankfurt is not in that same rush and, according to journalist Pipe Sierra, has rejected an offer of 10 million dollars from Mexican soccer. The club was not specified.

It is worth remembering that the artilleryman arrived free from River Plate, so it was expected that the temptation of such a figure would be enough, but apparently the Germans want at least five million more and are not willing to talk about it for less.
In the middle, Borré, 27, awaits an opportunity where he will gain continuity to fight for the position in the Colombian National Team, which will start the qualifying process for the 2026 World Cup in March. He is the only one sacrificed in all of history. Football, as the protagonists say, gives you and takes away…
