Álvaro Angulo set to snub Pumas move | OneFootball

Álvaro Angulo is one of the players that Pumas has in mind to reinforce themselves for the 2025 Apertura, although his arrival has not been confirmed yet.

Doubts increased after the Colombian played with Independiente de Avellaneda and scored the winning goal against Gimnasia y Esgrima in the Copa Argentina.

In that match, Angulo was a starter as left back and played the 90 minutes, scoring in the 89th minute the goal that sealed the victory.

Despite rumors of his departure, he remains a key player in the Argentine team.

Pumas' interest in him comes mainly from Efraín Juárez, the team's current coach, who already knows the defender from his time at Atlético Nacional, where they were champions together. Although the university club has insisted on signing him, the operation is complicated by external issues.

The possible arrival of Angulo depends on Ignacio Pussetto accepting to leave Pumas for Independiente, something that is not clear.

The Colombian has expressed annoyance at the situation and the lack of support from the management, although he assured that he has always given his all for his current club.
