Official: Óscar Perea joins Club América | OneFootball

The current transfer window has been one of the worst América has had in recent years; with no signings and several departures, the team has started the tournament with a very short squad.

But the board has finally woken up and announced its first reinforcement for Apertura 2026; Óscar Perea, a Colombian player, becomes the first signing for this second half of the year.

The intention behind this signing is to give an opportunity to a player who has shown potential and to create internal competition for Brian Rodríguez, who, after Allan Saint-Maximin’s departure, was left alone in that position.

Who is Óscar Perea?

Óscar Perea is a left winger with a right-footed profile who is only 20 years old and was until recently considered one of the gems of Colombian soccer, standing out with the U-20 National Team of his country.

Despite his young age, he has already played for three clubs, the first being Atlético Nacional (Colombia), followed by Racing Strasbourg (France) and AVS (Portugal), although unfortunately he has not been able to establish himself as expected.

Racing Strasbourg, which owns his rights, reported that the deal is a permanent transfer without disclosing the fee or the length of the contract that was signed.
