22 Jul
Summary
- David Ospina signs with Atlante FC in Mexico.
- He previously played for Arsenal, Napoli, and Al-Nassr.
- Ospina won two FA Cups during his time at Arsenal.
David Ospina has officially completed a new club transfer, joining Atlante FC in Mexico after his departure from Atlético Nacional. This move marks a fresh start for the experienced Colombian goalkeeper more than a decade after his initial arrival in European football.
The 37-year-old was previously linked with retirement following his exit from Atlético Nacional. However, he has opted to continue his playing career in Mexico with Atlante, a team recently promoted this season. Ospina brings a wealth of experience from previous clubs including Nice, Arsenal, Napoli, and Al-Nassr.
Ospina's tenure at Arsenal, which began on July 27, 2014, saw him make 70 appearances across four seasons. During this period, he was part of the squads that secured two FA Cup winners' medals in the 2014-15 and 2016-17 seasons, along with the 2017 Community Shield.
A loan move to Napoli in the summer of 2018, followed by a permanent transfer in July 2019, preceded his most recent spell with Atlético Nacional. His career will now most likely conclude in Mexico with Atlante.
