Cape Verde forward Vozinha signs with Chilean club Colo-Colo

Cape Verde goalkeeper Josimar “Vozinha” Dias, who recently signed with Chilean giants Colo‑Colo, said the transfer confirmed his long‑standing belief that he belongs at a “big club.” The 33‑year‑old, who has earned more than 50 caps for the Cape Verde national team and previously played for clubs in Portugal, Angola and Brazil, joined Colo‑Colo on a two‑year contract during the summer transfer window. In a post‑match interview, Vozinha explained that the move to the Santiago‑based side, which has won 33 domestic titles, validates his personal ambition and reflects his consistent performances at both club and international levels.

Colo‑Colo’s sporting director highlighted Vozinha’s experience and leadership as key assets for the team’s defensive line, noting that his arrival adds depth ahead of the upcoming Copa Sudamericana and domestic league campaigns. The goalkeeper’s debut is expected in the next round of fixtures, where he will compete for the starting role with incumbent keeper. His signing marks the latest high‑profile acquisition for the Chilean club as it seeks to reinforce its squad for a season targeting both national and continental success.
