Millonarios seek new goalkeeper after Novoa's error and Armani rumors

Millonarios' goalkeeper Diego Novoa posted an apology on Instagram after a mishandled save allowed São Paulo to open the scoring in their 1‑1 draw at the Morumbí stadium during the Copa Sudamericana. Novoa wrote, “Siento mucho lo que pasó. Me duele en el alma haberme equivocado,” and thanked his teammates for helping the team secure the equaliser.

Following the match, fans turned their attention to speculation that Argentine keeper Franco Armani could be a replacement. Armani’s agent indicated the keeper is open to offers, though his contract with Atlético Nacional ends in December 2026. Supporters expressed mixed feelings, with some chanting “No ataja un penal” and questioning whether the veteran would be accepted by the Millonarios crowd.
