When everything seemed like Riverand Juan Fernando Quintero were going to reunite without any issues, a change in América de Cali's position created doubts in the negotiation. Now, the Colombian club is demanding money to release him.
For the midfielder's third spell at the Millonario to happen, the player stated that he would arrive as a free agent because he would leave due to a six-month debt. He also revealed that he hasn't received his salary since he arrived.
However, América de Cali claims that they're up to date with the Colombian and are requesting financial compensation to let him go, stating that they're demanding between 2 and 2.5 million dollars.

River's position is firm: the doors are open and the contract offer still stands, but Quintero must solve his departure from the Colombian club. The Núñez club won't pay again for his transfer, although his arrival isn't at risk.
How the foreign player quota stands
After the sale of Adam Bareiro to Fortaleza, River has five out of six foreign player slots allowed by the AFA. That vacant spot is reserved for Lucas Cepeda, for whom they're still negotiating with Colo-Colo.
Another slot could be freed if São Paulo completes the loan signing of Gonzalo Tapia, or if Matías Rojas decides to terminate his contract before December.
