The Colombian goalkeeper and World Cup player, David Ospina, is in Atlante's orbit to join the ranks of the Barça squad. Given the need to shore up the goal, the board is looking for a key piece to help coach Miguel Herrera keep the Iron Colts afloat.

After starting the tournament with a 2-1 defeat at Necaxa's home, the Atlantista coaching staff increased the demands. They hope to soon close the agreement with the experienced goalkeeper, who is a free agent after finishing his cycle at Atlético Nacional.

The FOX Sports network revealed that there is already an agreement with Ospina. The Colombian will report to the club in the coming days after enjoying a vacation after his participation in the World Cup as Colombia's second goalkeeper, behind Camilo Vargas.

The journalistic version detailed: “The goalkeeper of the Colombian National Team is coming, a historic goalkeeper, but he is already hired.”

Ospina will be one of the three reinforcements that Atlante will incorporate in its return to Liga MX after 12 years of absence. His arrival is urgent after a comeback where the team suffered from defensive and refereeing errors. From the Premier League and Cristiano's Al-Nassr to Liga MX

With nearly 21 years of experience since his debut in 2005, David Ospina has a brilliant career in football in Europe and the Middle East.

His conditions took him to Nice in France when he was just 19 years old. His great performance allowed him to make the leap to the Premier League with Arsenal in 2014, where he remained for four seasons.

Later, he shone for Napoli in the Italian Serie A, a club where he won the Italian Cup. Before his recent and brief return to Colombia, the goalkeeper played in the Saudi league with Al-Nassr, sharing a dressing room with Cristiano Ronaldo. Now, his destiny aims to be the new idol of the Iron Colts.
