The revelations of the Copa America are already igniting the transfer window

–

It’s a habit. International competitions are a hell of a showcase for players, and very often, those who shine at these selection tournaments manage to catch the eye of clubs more upscale than theirs. This edition of the Copa América won by Argentina is logically no exception, and many players who participated in it will change clubs in the coming weeks. There is necessarily Rodrigo de Paul, brilliant with the Albiceleste, whose transfer to Atlético de Madrid for 35 million euros had been completed before the start of the competition, or even Lionel Messi, whose future in Barcelona is still unclear. On the Brazilian side, players like Richarlison, announced in the sights of Real Madrid, or Renan Lodi, could also change tune quickly.

But among players a little less publicized, there are very good deals, and that, the clubs understood it. In Colombia, the defensive midfielder Wilmar Barrios (27) is starting to arouse the interest of Serie A teams. But the Zenit player will be rather expensive, as his agent indicated in an interview with the country. Nahuel Molina (23), who nobody expected at this level on the right side of the Argentine defense, has a good chance of leaving Udine to join a more prestigious team, while Sevilla would be instantly according to the Spanish media.

In the middle of the field, Renato Tapia (25) was one of the main architects of the good course of Peru, who finished fourth in the competition. Already the author of a noted exercise with Celta in La Liga, he has gained further value under the tunic of his selection and some Peruvian media are talking about him for … Bayern! Atlético de Madrid would also be interested in his profile. His compatriot and midfielder companion Yoshimar Yotun (31) is him in the sights of several European teams, and would have offers from two La Liga teams according to the press in his country. His days in Cruz Azul (Mexico) therefore seem numbered.

Free of any contract following his departure from Emmen, the Peruvian attacking midfielder Sergio Pena could rebound in Spain where Alavés and Cadiz await it. On the Colombian side, Luis Diaz was the star of the tournament and the Cafeteros player even finished top scorer alongside Lionel Messi (4 goals). The 24-year-old winger, not always a holder in Porto, would now have the two clubs of Milan and Tottenham on his heels. Gianluca Lapadula (31), who has shaken the nets three times with Peru, could leave Benevento and was recently announced in the sights of Monaco or Cagliari. There are also those who have already found their club, such as the Colombian Rafael Santos Borré who signs his return to Europe after leaving River Plate for Eintracht Frankfurt, or the Paraguayan left-back Santi Arzamendia (23 years old) who is is engaged with Cadiz in La Liga. Here are some ideas for our Ligue 1 clubs …
