Unión Española Presses Universidad de Chile for Defender Tamayo

Unión Española has renewed its efforts to sign Venezuelan defender Bianneider Tamayo, aiming to bolster their squad for the second half of the Liga de Ascenso season. The club is reportedly insistent on acquiring the 21-year-old player, signaling their strong interest in his capabilities.

However, their pursuit faces a significant hurdle as Universidad de Chile, Tamayo's current club, is determined to keep him. Despite multiple contacts and negotiations from Unión Española, the "Romántico Viajero" is reluctant to let the defender go, highlighting his perceived value to their team.

Tamayo has featured in six games for Universidad de Chile this season, accumulating 360 minutes on the field. Notably, he has prior experience with Unión Española, having played for them in 2025 before the team's relegation to the Liga de Ascenso. This history could potentially influence his decision, but Universidad de Chile's desire to retain him remains a key factor.
