👹 América de Cali working on their first signing
'Mechita' aims to incorporate Venezuelan player Jhon Murillo, who currently plays in Mexican football, for the second half of 2025. América de Cali has a new sports project underway with Argentine coach Diego Gabriel Raimondi at the helm and is starting to work on forming a competitive squad to compete in the second half of 2025. Advertisement One of the names that has generated the most interest in 'Mechita' is Venezuelan player Jhon Murillo, a 29-year-old player who currently plays for Atlético San Luis in Mexican football. América de Cali had already shown interest in Murillo in the previous market, and his arrival in this transfer window is important to mitigate the losses of key players like Duván Vergara or Juan Fernando Quintero. Diego Gabriel Raimondi would add to his squad an attacker with imbalance, international experience, and offensive versatility. Jhon Murillo emerged from Zamora FC, was sold to Benfica in Portugal (he couldn't make his official debut), and then transferred to CD Tondela, and had a stint with Kasimpasa in Turkey before landing in Mexico. He has also been called up to the Venezuelan national team for the Eliminatorias and Copa América. Advertisement Although he has several suitors, América de Cali wants to close his signing as soon as possible so that he can start working towards a semester with a lot of demands.
