Aníbal Mosa, president of Blanco y Negro, the company managing Colo Colo, has responded to speculation linking the club with a move for defender Iván Román. However, Mosa avoided confirming any concrete negotiations for the player, adhering to his established stance on transfer dealings.
"I've said it on a couple of occasions, when there are players who have a current contract with other clubs, I don't refer to them, because I don't want them to talk about Colo Colo's players when they have a contract," Mosa declared. This position reflects a deliberate strategy to avoid publicizing potential negotiations while players are still bound to their current teams, thereby respecting contractual agreements and potentially preventing rival clubs from interfering.
