Colo Colo has finalized the acquisition of Vozinha, a veteran goalkeeper from Cape Verde. The player officially signed his contract after reaching a verbal agreement with the Chilean club earlier this week.
Softfootball reports that the 40-year-old has completed the necessary signing process and is set to head to Chile, where he will have medical tests before being formally introduced by the team. The final steps have been completed, allowing the experienced goalkeeper to embark on a new journey in South America.
Vozinha’s profile soared during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where he captained the Cape Verde team and emerged as a key player. He achieved a remarkable clean sheet against the eventual champions, Spain, and delivered strong performances against top teams like Argentina.
His impressive performances were recognized globally, earning him a place in FIFA’s fan-voted Dream Team, which highlighted him as one of the standout players of the tournament.

Colo Colo anticipates that Vozinha’s experience will bolster the team, both in terms of performance and leadership, especially after missing out on other goalkeeping options, including Santiago Mele.
This signing marks a significant move for the Chilean club, as they add a goalkeeper with extensive international experience and a track record in high-pressure situations, reinforcing their lineup as the season progresses.
