Alan Franco is a defensive midfielder who has been a cornerstone of Atlético Mineiro's engine room since 2020, with a loan spell at Talleres Córdoba the only interruption to his time in Belo Horizonte. Developed at Independiente del Valle, he brings physicality, positional discipline, and experience of competing in the Copa Libertadores at the highest South American club level. For Ecuador, Franco offers a different profile to Moisés Caicedo — less dynamic but more conservative, providing cover and structure. His longevity at a club of Atlético Mineiro's stature reflects genuine quality in a demanding league.
