Defensor Sporting, a team from Montevideo seeking to strengthen its defensive line, has reportedly begun efforts to sign Uruguayan-Spanish defender Edgar Elizalde. The purple side is interested in the 26-year-old center-back. The player's representatives are said to view a return to his country favorably, as Elizalde has not managed to secure a regular starting position at Millonarios. With a contract at the Bogotá club until December 2026, any departure will depend on an agreement, as Millonarios expects to receive financial compensation for the defender’s release. Anticipating a potential exit, Millonarios coach Fabián Bustos has requested the signing of a foreign central defender as a replacement. The transfer's completion depends on the negotiations between the clubs reaching a successful conclusion. Elizalde joined Millonarios in January 2026 and has made 9 appearances in the Liga DIMAYOR I this season. The defender has 17 caps for the Uruguay U20 national team and, according to Transfermarkt, has a current market value of €300k.
