ROSARIO, ARGENTINA, JUL 21 – Keylor Navas joins Pumas as a replacement goalkeeper for Alex Padilla with a $2 million transfer fee after six months at Newell's Old Boys, signing a one-year deal.
- On Monday, Costa Rica goalkeeper Keylor Navas reached a deal to join Liga MX club Pumas, Newell's Old Boys said, for a $2 million fee.

- He made 16 appearances for Newell's after joining in January, and he won Champions League, LaLiga, Club World Cup, Super Cup and three Ligue 1 titles earlier in his career, including with Real Madrid.
- He could debut as early as this Friday's league match against Querétaro, and he is expected to join Leagues Cup play next week against Atlanta United, Orlando City and Inter Miami CF.
- His status as one of Concacaf's most successful players after a strong Gold Cup this summer suggests he could bolster Pumas’ ambitions, and he has featured in three World Cups for Costa Rica.
