Without Claudio Salto through injury, this is how Mitre face Colón | OneFootball

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

Amid preparations for the Matchday 15 game against Colón de Santa Fe in the Primera Nacional, Mitre confirmed 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 medical tests carried out in recent hours, the muscle injury was confirmed, ruling him out as well for the upcoming game against El Sabalero.

The absence is a significant blow for the aurinegro side, as Salto had been a regular part of the attacking setup and one of the team’s most dangerous offensive players.

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

Another player in doubt due to calf discomfort is Santiago Rosales, but the idea is for him to be fit and available 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 on-field work with small-sided games and high-intensity physical exercises, finishing the day with gym work.

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

Probable starting 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. Head coach: Cristian Mazzón.
