America has tried this summer anyway to get rid of Nicolás Castillo, but his high salary is an obstacle
America is back at work for what will be its participation in the Apertura 2021. However, the Eagles still have some pending in the preparation of their squad and one of the main ones is that of Nicolás Castillo.
As reported ESPN, The Chilean has already been notified that he is not in Santiago Solari’s plans and must look for a new team if he wants to play again. However, if his departure is not specified, sources close to the Coapa club indicated that Nicolás Castillo earns approximately 2.5 million dollars a year, that is, around 50 million pesos a year that translates into 6 million pesos of monthly form for the South American footballer who has not participated in an official match since the beginning of 2020 due to a vascular accident that he suffered precisely in that year.
America has tried this summer anyway to get rid of the attacker, but his high salary is an obstacle. Few clubs have been interested and those that do ask for a subsidy from the Eagles to cover Castillo’s payment, in addition to the fact that not just any team will accept to take Nico until they are completely certain that his health is not at risk after the thrombosis that suffered in January of last year.
ESPN consulted the angiologist Jorge Torres, who from his point of view considers that the return of Nico Castillo to the courts is not recommended.
“For this, there must be no complications and anticoagulant medications have to be used to define how long it will take to play again, I don’t know how risky it is to put a patient like that to play and I consider it a risk but surely the doctors of the sport with more information and knowledge of the possible complications of a medicated player will make the decision to send him or not to the field ”.
However, Castillo is determined to return to the pitch as soon as possible. The Andean wants to play again, be it in America or in any other team. Faced with this situation, the former American Reinaldo Navia considers that the Coapa team is making a mistake in not waiting a little longer for the return of his compatriot.
“The first season in America cost him and then all this came from the injury, but I think that with the team that America is playing, Nicolás would have adjusted a lot to the football that Solari has been practicing because it is more about position, he likes to go to playing with the nine, maybe this game system would have been much better for Nico because he is a player who stands out well and has a good shot from long distance, I would have liked them to give him another chance because I think he would have gone well with this team that America has today, “Navia commented to ESPN.
Time is running out for America, which, in case of not being able to accommodate Castillo elsewhere, will have to pay him six more months without being able to use it, while the Chilean only watches as time passes without him being able to return to the field of play.
