Felipe Loyola Transfer from Independiente to Santos

According to a report from TYC, Santos, described as Neymar's former club, submitted an interesting offer to sign Felipe Loyola for a move to Brazil. This offer was made days before a higher proposal from Pisa in Italy.

According to TYC reports, a verbal agreement is in place for Felipe Loyola's transfer to Santos for $6 million for 80% of his rights. The amount is to be divided equally between Independiente and Huachipato. Independiente is awaiting confirmation regarding the bank guarantees presented by Santos, as the club has had problems in other transfers.

According to TYC, Santos has sent a formal offer of six million US dollars gross for 80% of Felipe Loyola's transfer rights. Independiente wants the amount to be net and is open to the player's departure for that sum, provided the payment is net. Santos is closely following Felipe Loyola and wants to sign him after having avoided relegation and qualifying for the Copa Sudamericana.

According to TYC, Santos has made a verbal offer to buy 80% of Felipe Loyola's transfer rights for six million dollars. Independiente owns half of his rights and Huachipato owns the other half and is willing to negotiate. The offer was not formal, only verbal, and was made to assess the intentions for a transfer. The proposed amount from Santos would meet Independiente's expectations, which had set a total release clause at eight million dollars. There has only been contact with the intention of completing the transfer so far.

Santos has submitted a proposal to Independiente, Argentina, for the transfer of 24-year-old Chilean midfielder Felipe Loyola. The Brazilian club has offered approximately US$ 6 million (R$ 32.5 million) for 70% of Loyola's economic rights. Known as a pivotal figure at Independiente, Loyola is under contract with the Argentine club until 2028. With the transfer window closing on September 2nd, the negotiation process is expected to be complex. However, Santos continues discussions, hoping to capitalize on its strong relationship with Independiente's management. This relationship was notably enhanced earlier this year during the loan agreement for Uruguayan midfielder Rodrigo Fernández. Loyola, who began his career at Colo Colo and clinched the Chilean Championship in 2023, joined Independiente at the start of 2024. He is being eyed as a potential replacement for Diego Pituca, who recently moved to play in Japanese football.
