Colo Colo has secured one of its brightest young talents, Manley Clerveaux, with a professional contract that will keep him at the club for the next three years. The 19-year-old Haitian forward, who recently made his debut in the senior team’s Copa Chile victory over Unión San Felipe, has now committed his future to the club.
According to Dale Albo, this deal highlights Colo Colo’s belief in Clerveaux’s growth and potential to make a significant impact under head coach Jorge Almirón. “I’m very happy and grateful to everyone who’s here,” Clerveaux said after signing. “As Jorge Almirón said, if I’m here, it’s because I’m ready.”
Renowned for his speed and creativity, Clerveaux is determined to become a key player in a squad looking to strengthen its attacking options. “My dream is to leave a mark at Colo Colo,” he stated, acknowledging that achieving his goals will require continued development and hard work.
This announcement comes amidst rumors of internal tensions within the squad regarding Almirón’s management, but the focus now shifts to the Copa Libertadores. Colo Colo will face Fortaleza at the Monumental Stadium on Thursday, April 10, at 8:00 p.m. local time in a critical Group A match.
