The lack of definition was one of the factors that left Millonarios without a prize in the first half of 2022, despite finishing first in the round robin phase. The team led by Alberto Gamero barely scored five goals in the six semi-final games and was left out of the dispute for the title.
The Bogota team had already announced the arrival of Luis Carlos Ruiz, the second top scorer in the League, who arrived from Cortuluá. And later, press and social media rumors brought another interesting name closer to Millonarios.
Leonardo Castro, former player of Independiente Medellín and author of nine goals this semester with Pereira, sounded like a possibility to act in Millonarios.

As reported on Caracol Radio’s ‘VBAR’, there is already a verbal agreement between both parties and everything would be finalized as soon as possible. Likewise, Adrián Magnoli, a DirecTV panelist and close to the striker, confirmed that “it has already been arranged with the representative.”
Millionaires denied that there were contacts with Leonardo Castro
Nevertheless, Millionaires came out to deny the versions that claimed that there were approaches with the Deportivo Pereira attacker.
“Millionaires FC clarifies that there is no rapprochement or negotiation with the player, his environment and the club of origin”, the club assured in a statement, in which it insists that the rumors and unconfirmed versions were only ‘Fake news’, published the club.
It is the second time in the week that Millonarios denies, through their official networks, a news related to the club.
Last Tuesday, in another statement, Millos denied that there was an option for Real Madrid to make a sports alliance with the Bogota club.

Millonarios described the versions as “false and irresponsible”, and accused the person who gave the initial version of having made other issues roll with lies, such as financial information and the linking of an airline as a sponsor of the club.
