Relief for América de Cali: Cristian Barrios moves further from Junior
Cristian Barrios has been a key piece in the last semester of América de Cali, which is why his name begins to resonate in the transfer market, and generates concern in the team that will now be led by Gabriel Raimondi. It was known that Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata had started proceedings to sign him, an interest that the Argentine club had already shown at the beginning of the year. But the 'Wolf' withdrew from the negotiations, presumably worried about the ankle injury that Barrios suffered in the Copa Sudamericana, which would still take some time to recover.

With the arrival of Alfredo Arias to the bench of the Shark, the team seeks to reassemble with figures. However... Is Cristian Barrios moving away from Junior? Although several versions put the player on Junior's radar, at the express request of Alfredo Arias to strengthen the attack, journalist Diego Rueda reported that there would be "difficulties" to sign him. Thus, the reporter adds, Junior would go for another option: Jhon Fredy Salazar, the right winger who has had a good season with Águilas Doradas and would be the chosen one to fulfill the wishes of coach Arias.

In this context, 'Mechita' has published an official statement with a medical report on some important players for the team. Cristian Barrios suffers from an "ankle sprain and fracture in the left fibula", so it is expected that he will be at least a month away from the fields due to these injuries suffered against Huracán in the continental competition. 📄 Comunicado oficial | Parte médico de nuestros jugadores. — América de Cali (@AmericadeCali) May 21, 2025 Éder Álvarez Balanta, meanwhile, suffered a "muscle-tendon injury in the left hip" and, although he started jogging this Wednesday, there is no specific date for his return to activity. On the other hand, Mateo Castillo has been medically cleared and "joined group training this Wednesday", so he will be available for 'Polilla' Da Silva when he deems it appropriate.
