Patricio Salas

ANALYSIS
Salas recently struggled for minutes at America, appearing in just two matches for 33 total minutes this Apertura campaign. Across three seasons with the Eagles, he managed three goals and two assists in 30 league appearances, with his game built more around off-ball movement and holdup play than pure goal output. His departure from the Azulcrema side has already been covered by the signing of Miguel Borja, who will share time on the field with Henry Martin and Alejandro Cardenas. Salas has a non-obligatory buy option attached to the loan, and he'll look to establish himself as a regular target man for manager Carlos Carvalhal rather than a primary scoring threat.
