Colombian clubs showing interest in Nelson Valdez

Independiente Medellin appears to be the team most aggressively pursuing the Sounders forward.

With less than two weeks until the Seattle Sounders officially open preseason training camp and about six weeks before they play their first competitive match of the year, transfer rumors are suddenly starting to heat up. The latest is that a pair of Colombian clubs are looking at the possibility of signing Nelson Haedo Valdez.

Although Atletico Nacional is one of those two clubs and was reportedly looking to bolster their roster for Copa Libertadores, the stronger links appear to be tying Indepiendente Medellin to Valdez.
