Official: Santiago Mingo joins Club América | OneFootball

On the very last 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 from Argentina, has signed with Club América from Bahia FC of Brazil’s Serie A.

At his last club, Santiago was an undisputed starter, making 88 appearances and scoring 15 goals, 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 is believed to have paid $10 million for the player’s transfer, with that amount 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 step out of it and cover a quick forward, since he is a defender who reacts better when well positioned in the area.

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

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