Wuilker Faríñez seemed to have his return to Colombian football almost ready. However, the Venezuelan, for the moment, will not be able to be in the country, after Atlético Nacional ruled out signing him and later Deportivo Pereira did so, a club that was interested in having his services.

The Risraldense club had agreed terms with the 25-year-old goalkeeper and all that remained was to pass the medical exams for him to sign his signature and wear the colors of the institution. However, this will not occur and doctor Camilo Lopera clarified the situation.

At the press conference prior to the match against Deportivo Pasto, the coach, Leonel Álvarez, brought the specialist to talk about the issue, who said: “They did tests on him hoping with the best intentions that he would pass them, but medically it was not possible.” . He was not there to have minutes and could not enter the club at this time,” Lopera noted.

The Antioquia team also sought the former Millonarios as a replacement for Kevin Mier. He underwent medical examinations and, even though he passed them, the club finally decided not to rely on his services, citing the fact that there was not enough time for him to gain competitive rhythm.

“Due to the club’s close sporting commitments and although the player has recovered, it is considered that there would not be enough time for him to acquire the necessary competitive rhythm, which is why Atlético Nacional declines the possibility of making the contract,” they stated in this regard. .

It is worth mentioning that Faríñez suffered a torn ligament in one of his knees in mid-2022. Since then, he has not played a game, with the friendly between Malta and Venezuela being the last one played. For his part, with Lens in France, the club with which he terminated his contract, he has not made a save since May 21, 2022.
