Buenos Aires, Feb 2 (NA) – Colombian forward Edwuin Cetré will return to Estudiantes de La Plata after the club informed of the “cancellation of the agreement” with Brazil's Athletico Paranaense for the sale of the player. According to the Argentine News Agency (NA), the La Plata club announced on its social networks that “the definitive transfer of player Edwuin Cetré to Athletico Paranaense of Brazil has been canceled.” “Despite previous advances, the operation has been voided due to last-minute discrepancies in the terms between the two institutions. The La Plata club was to divide the final amount in equal parts with Independiente Medellín of Colombia, the team that bought Cetré's pass in January 2024. A four-time champion with Estudiantes, the Colombian came on in the second half of the 1-1 draw against Independiente and did not travel with the squad for the 2-1 victory over Boca Juniors to resolve the details of his move to the Brazilian team. At the end of last week, the native of Cali traveled to Brazil to undergo a medical examination, which was to be the most expensive purchase in the history of Athletico Paranaense, but the transfer fell through. Although Estudiantes cited “last-minute discrepancies,” the other side claims that heart problems were detected during the medical examination. In this way, the player will return to the country and will be arriving in our city this Monday to rejoin the first team of the institution,” Estudiantes added in its statement. The 28-year-old forward was to be sold for six million dollars to the team that returned this year to the top division of Brazilian football.
