💣Paulo Díaz’s future: his father rules out a return to Colo Colo

Amid growing rumors linking Paulo Díaz with a possible departure from River Plate, his father, Ítalo Díaz, stepped in to provide clarity. Despite supposed interest from clubs like Independiente de Avellaneda or a return to Colo Colo, the Chilean center-back’s camp was emphatic: the player has no intention of leaving Núñez in the short term.

Contract secured until 2027

Ítalo Díaz confirmed that the “Bombero” will honor his contract with the Argentine club. “He has a contract with River until 2027. He won’t leave before then,” he said, also denying reports claiming that coach Eduardo Coudet did not count on him. With 220 official appearances under his belt, the defender remains a historic figure in the “Millonario” squad.

No plans to return to Chile

As for a possible return to Chilean football, the stance is definitive. “Going back to Chile isn’t even on his mind yet,” his father said, while leaving the door open to other markets such as Brazil or Mexico in the future. For now, Díaz remains focused on River’s Copa Sudamericana opener against Blooming.
