Darwin Quintero Transfer from Deportivo Pereira to Millonarios
Carlos Darwin Quintero was presented as the first signing of Millonarios for 2026. According to journalist Carlos Antonio Vélez, Quintero had almost reached an agreement with Santa Fe, attracted by the Copa Libertadores and a very good offer that included a call from Rodallega. However, Quintero revealed that Santa Fe's bankruptcy proceedings required external guarantees for contract fulfillment, which led him to prefer Millonarios since they provided the necessary guarantees due to not being under bankruptcy law. Vélez explained that Quintero's decision was based on contractual terms and guarantees, not on club preference. Quintero signed with Millonarios for a term of one year, with hopes for a successful season and possible participation in the Copa Sudamericana.
According to Futbolred, Millonarios confirmed the arrival of Carlos Darwin Quintero on Friday. The player arrives as a free agent after leaving Deportivo Pereira a few weeks ago. The forward signed a one-year contract with the possibility of an extension until December 2027.
