Official: Santiago Mingo joins Club América | OneFootball

Right on the final day of the transfer window, Las Águilas completed the signing of the player who will replace Sebastián Cáceres, who was sold to Celta de Vigo in Spain.

Santiago Ramos Mingo, a 24-year-old center back of Argentine origin, has signed with Club América from Bahía FC of Brazil’s Serie A.

At his last club, Santiago established himself as an undisputed starter, making 88 appearances and scoring 15 goals, which is a very good number for a center back.

What will his contract be like?

Reports say that Santiago Mingo will sign a four-year contract, and Club América reportedly paid $10 million for the player’s transfer, with that amount currently including bonuses tied to achievable objectives.

What will Mingo bring to América?

Santiago Mingo is a defender with very good effectiveness inside the box, although perhaps his biggest weakness comes when he has to move out of it and track a quick forward, as he is a defender who reacts better when he is well positioned in the area.

He also has very good vision on the field to play progressive passes that can contribute a lot to the team’s attack, something the team also already has with Israel Reyes.

A very interesting signing, with a strong present and a future that looks very promising, which is why it is understandable that they decided to pay so much for the Argentine defender.
