Futbolred reported that Nicolás Rodríguez has joined Atlético Nacional on loan from Orlando City until December 2026, with an option to buy. According to the report, the information was made public by the US club. The agreement, reached after several weeks of negotiation, includes a stipulation that if Nacional exercises the purchase option, Orlando City will retain a percentage of any future sale of the player.

Atlético Nacional is negotiating with Orlando City for a one-year loan for Nicolás Rodríguez, which includes a purchase option. The Colombian club is pursuing this move because it is seeking a replacement for Marino Hinestroza. It is reported that the 21-year-old winger has already given his approval for the operation, and the process is advancing. Rodríguez is said to be motivated to return to Colombian football as he did not become an established starter in his first year with the MLS club.
