Colón name squad for trip to All Boys: returns and a big surprise | OneFootball

Iván Delfino presented the list of players called up for Matchday 31 of the Primera Nacional in Floresta. Amid the return of key players and significant absences due to injury and suspension, the first call-up for youngster Valentino Albornoz stands out.

Colón head coach Iván Delfino made official the list of players selected for a key away fixture against All Boys at the Islas Malvinas stadium. After securing a much-needed win at the Brigadier López, El Sabalero will look to maintain its momentum and stay firmly in the fight for the top spots in Zone A.

The lead-up to this match has not been easy for Colón’s coach, with a significant number of absences forcing him to reshuffle the pieces in the team’s structure.

Key returns and changes in goal

Among the new developments in the squad list, the good news is the return of Mauro Peinipil and Federico Lértora, who have served their respective suspensions and are once again available to the coaching staff to bring solidity to the starting eleven. The list also confirms the presence in defense of key figures such as Federico Rasmussen and Pier Barrios.

In goal, the muscle injury suffered by Matías Budiño leaves Tomás Giménez with the responsibility of guarding the red-and-black net, with youngster Tomás Paredes as the backup option.

The big surprise: first call-up for youngster Albornoz

One of the standout names on Delfino’s list is young attacker Valentino Albornoz. The 16-year-old forward, developed in the club’s youth academy and with experience in youth national teams, receives his first call-up to the professional squad as an attacking option amid the absences up front.
