RIO DE JANEIRO, June 20 (Xinhua) -- Sao Paulo are close to signing Argentine midfielder Jonathan Gomez from Colombia's Independiente Santa Fe, according to media reports.
The Brazilian Serie A club has offered the Bogota outfit 2.5 million U.S. dollars to secure the 27-year-old, the Uol news portal said on Tuesday.
It added that the parties are negotiating a three-year deal and that an agreement could be reached "within days".
Gomez has scored 21 goals in 80 matches for Santa Fe since his 2016 move from Deportivo Pasto.
