Estudiantes (BA) await Colón as two starters return | OneFootball

El Pincha de Caseros is coming in on the rise after an uneven start, and Alfredo Grelak will once again have Santiago Camacho and Marcelo Albarracín available. Ahead of the match, Ezequiel Pereiro spoke about the team’s current form and the impact generated by Colón’s visit.

Speaking with ADN Gol, club journalist Ezequiel Pereiro said that El Pincha will get back two important players for Saturday, Santiago Camacho and Marcelo Albarracín, both of whom missed the last match due to suspension.

“The team is improving. Since the coach arrived, they haven’t lost, and that also motivates the fans,” Pereiro explained, adding that the squad will train Thursday and Friday afternoon before going into camp.

Even so, Estudiantes will still have some absences. Jorge Correa and Franco Quintero are still recovering from different muscle strains and will hardly be available for Saturday. They are joined by youngster Teo Coven, who is recovering from a ligament injury.

During the interview, there was also mention of Matías Budiño, now Colón’s goalkeeper and a recent former Estudiantes player. Pereiro confirmed that the Caseros club owns 50% of his rights, a share acquired some time ago from Excursionistas.

“Budiño had terrific seasons at Estudiantes, and that allowed him to make the jump to a big club like Colón,” he said.

He also highlighted the model Estudiantes has maintained for several seasons in Primera Nacional, backing players from the lower divisions and youth categories. “The key is looking downward. Estudiantes identifies players in Federal A or Primera B and gives them time to grow.”
