Dairon Asprilla may play his final game for the Portland Timbers on Saturday.

The forward, who has been with the Timbers since 2015, is expected to leave the club and sign with Colombian squad Atletico Nacional, according to a report from Julian Capera, a journalist in Mexico.

The report said the forward will be in a Timbers jersey for the last time when the club hosts Minnesota United on Saturday. Asprilla will then travel to Medellin next week for medical tests with Atletico Nacional. He is expected to sign a two-year contract with the club.

Asprilla, 32, has been with the Timbers since the 2015 season. He has appeared in 202 matches (114 starts) with the Timbers, scoring 33 goals and adding 19 assists.
