Colo Colo rule out move for Víctor Dávila, what next for the Chilean? | OneFootball

Víctor Dávila arrived at América in September 2024 as a high-profile signing after shining in Russia and enjoying a very good spell in Liga MX with clubs like León, Pachuca, and Necaxa.

Unfortunately, things did not go well for him from the start. The Chilean striker suffered a fracture just one month after joining the team, which forced him to miss the entire tournament.

During the Clausura 2025, the multiple injuries to his teammates allowed him to begin the tournament as an undisputed starter, and he did quite well. He scored in several consecutive matches, making it seem like we were about to see his best version at América.

But that was not the case; he gradually faded as the tournament went on, could not regain that level in the Apertura 2025, and later suffered a ligament tear that ruled him out for the entire Clausura 2026.

Colo Colo rules out signing him.

Just before his injury, Chile’s Colo Colo showed strong interest in signing the Águilas striker, but América’s board refused to sell him, and just a few weeks later he suffered his terrible injury.

Dávila is just a couple of months away from being able to return to the pitch, so rumors about a possible move to Colo Colo have resurfaced, but they were completely denied by the Chilean club’s management.

“He is not an option. We are not thinking about bringing in injured players so they can come here to recover. It’s ruled out,” were the words of Colo Colo’s president.

What will happen with Dávila?

For now, he will remain at América recovering from his injury, but if they are unable to move him in this transfer window, the most likely scenario is that they will register him for this Apertura 2026, since his return to the pitch is expected in September.
