Cabo Verde national team goalkeeper Vozinha completed the transfer to 'Colo-Colo' in Chile

Eduardo "Vozinha" Pinto, a 40-year-old goalkeeper representing the Cape Verde national team, landed today at Santiago Airport in Chile, where he completed the transfer process to one of the most popular clubs in the country – "Colo-Colo." This was reported by the well-known journalist and football insider Fabrizio Romano.

Previously emerged rumors about the Moroccan transfer

At the beginning of the week, football media reported that the Moroccan club 'Berkan' had intercepted interest in Vozinha and was preparing a deal for his transfer. According to those reports, the goalkeeper had already discussed contract details with representatives of the Moroccan team, but no official confirmation followed.

Now, after arriving in Chile, it became clear that negotiations with 'Colo-Colo' were successful, and plans for a transfer to Morocco remained just rumors.

Vozinha has been playing for the national team of Cape Verde for several years. In the qualifying stage for the 2026 World Cup, he participated in four matches, two of which ended without conceding goals, demonstrating reliability in recent international matches.

Before transferring to 'Colo-Colo', the player's last club was in Portugal – the second division 'Shavish'. In the past season, the goalkeeper played 19 matches in all tournaments, six of which ended 'clean sheet', confirming his stable form even at the age of 40.

According to the Transfermarkt portal, the market value of Vozinhi is estimated at €500,000. This amount reflects both his experience and the current level of demand for goalkeepers with international experience in Latin American football.

Signing a contract with 'Colo-Colo' opens new opportunities for the footballer in the Chilean championship. The club traditionally occupies top positions in the national championship and regularly participates in international club tournaments, which can become an important stage in the goalkeeper's further career.

For 'Colo-Colo', attracting an experienced international goalkeeper is seen as a strengthening of the defense, especially ahead of the upcoming seasons when the team plans to compete for the title and a place in continental competitions.

Thus, despite earlier reports of a possible move to Morocco, the official direction of Vozinhi's career has become Chile, where he will now defend the goal of one of the most famous clubs in the country.
