Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha, who emerged as one of the biggest surprises at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, has reached an agreement to join Chilean side Colo Colo, club president Anibal Mosa has revealed.
The 40-year-old free agent will travel to Chile to undergo a medical before being officially unveiled at Estadio Monumental, Mosa said ahead of Colo Colo's league match against Deportes Limache.
"Vozinha will be a Colo Colo player. In the coming days he will travel to Chile, undergo the usual medical examinations and then be presented here at the Estadio Monumental," Mosa said.
Mosa added Vozinha's FIFA World Cup performances showed he deserved the move, while acknowledging the signing also carried marketing appeal for the Chilean side.
Although the deal has yet to be finalised, Colo Colo teased the signing on social media with an image appearing to show the veteran goalkeeper's trademark curly hair.
Vozinha, who left Portuguese second-tier side Chaves before the 2026 FIFA World Cup, was voted into FIFA's fan-selected dream team after helping tournament debutant Cape Verde hold eventual champion Spain to a goalless draw and pushing eventual runner-up Argentina into extra-time in the Round of 32.
