Mitre without Claudio Salto through injury for Colón clash | OneFootball

The aurinegro forward suffered a tear and remains sidelined. The coaching staff is aiming to have him back for the clash against Deportivo Morón.

Amid preparations for the match against Colón de Santa Fe on matchday 15 of the Primera Nacional, Mitre confirmed some discouraging news: Claudio Salto suffered a tear in his right pectoral muscle and will remain out for at least ten more days.

The forward had already missed the last match against San Miguel, and after tests carried out in recent hours, the muscle injury was confirmed, ruling him out of the upcoming game against El Sabalero as well.

The absence is a major blow for the aurinegro side, as Salto had been a regular piece in the attacking setup and one of the team’s most dangerous players going forward.

The coaching staff is closely monitoring the attacker’s recovery and remains hopeful that he can return for the match against Deportivo Morón, although for now they do not want to rush his recovery and will evaluate his physical response day by day.

Another player who is doubtful due to calf discomfort is Santiago Rosales, but the idea is that he will be fit and able to start against Colón on Sunday at 6 p.m.

Meanwhile, the squad continues training intensely ahead of the trip to Santa Fe. In Thursday’s session, the group carried out fieldwork with small-sided games and high-intensity physical exercises, ending the day with gym work.

Mitre will look to overcome Salto’s absence and try to pick up points in a tough trip against Colón, in an important match to stay in the fight in the Primera Nacional.

Probable XI to face Colón: Joaquín Ledesma; Pablo Minisale, Franco Ferrari, Iván Antunes, Juan Alesandroni, Daniel Abello, Agustín Ramírez, Martín Vásquez, Marcos Machado, Santiago Rosales and Rodrigo González. Coach: Cristian Mazzón.
