Keylor Navas, the legendary 38-year-old Costa Rican goalkeeper, could be about to finalize his transfer to Colo Colo, one of the biggest clubs in Chile. After leaving Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2024, where he spent five seasons, Navas is currently without a team, but his name is increasingly being mentioned in the corridors of the Monumental stadium. Throughout his career, the Costa Rican has enjoyed great success, including three Champions League titles with Real Madrid. The possibility of him joining Colo Colo has generated significant anticipation, both in Costa Rica and in international media, who are already speaking of his imminent arrival in Chile.
The goalkeeper, who left PSG after losing prominence, has been seeking new challenges to continue his successful career. Although his name was linked to several European and South American teams, Colo Colo seems to be his final destination. French media outlets such as L’Equipe and Le Parisien have reported on advanced negotiations between Navas and Colo Colo, and decisions are expected to be made this week. With his international experience and impressive career, Navas would arrive in Chile as one of the highest-paid players on the team, becoming a leader in the locker room and a key reinforcement for the upcoming season.
