O Sao Paulo opens the week with the expectation of the announcement of a loan, with an option to buy, of midfielder Andrés Colorado. The player should disembark in the capital of São Paulo at dawn on Tuesday to take exams at the club in the morning.
–
If the Colombian is approved in the exams, the announcement will be made between Tuesday or Wednesday. He would be Tricolor’s sixth reinforcement for the season. Nikão, Alisson, Jandrei, Rafinha and Patrick were the other signings.
–
The imminent arrival of Andrés Colorado will fulfill a desire exposed by Rogério Ceni in recent interviews. According to the coach, the squad has short stature, which compromises the game in some aspects.

Andrés Colorado is 1.93m tall and could become the tallest player in the squad. Recently, the club had negotiations to hire Willyan Rocha, Portimonense’s 1.93m defender. The parties, however, did not enter into an agreement for the transfer.
–
The obstacle in the negotiation by Willyan Rocha, however, does not rule out the possibility of Sao Paulo follow the market in search of a player for the position. Ceni still wants a tall defender with good ball output, as well as a fast forward.
–
The second request has been more complicated. The club tried to sign Soteldo and Douglas Costa at the beginning of the transfer window, but neither name has advanced.
–
The idea of Sao Paulo is to look for market opportunities that do not compromise finances. Tricolor is still experiencing a serious financial crisis, with a debt approaching R$ 700 million.
