Yerson Candelo is reportedly on the verge of leaving América de Cali to join Santa Fe. Journalist Juan José Mantilla indicated that Candelo has reached an agreement to facilitate the move. Seeking more playing time, Candelo views Santa Fe as an appealing opportunity, especially given the team's successful history with veteran players. Although he is currently recovering from physical issues, Candelo intends to use this transfer window to switch clubs. At 33, Candelo has enjoyed a distinguished career with achievements at Deportivo Cali, Querétaro in Mexico, Atlético Nacional, Aucas in Ecuador, and Criciúma in Brazil. His transfer to Santa Fe, the reigning Liga Betplay champion, is considered a strategic effort to rejuvenate his playing career, as he has spent significant time on the bench at América de Cali. The competition at Santa Fe promises to be tough, particularly against Elvis Perlaza, a pivotal player for the team.
