Colo Colo finally has a new center forward and his name is Facundo Ferreyra, an attacker who has everything ready with the Alba leadership and who should be entered in the ANFP pass book during this Friday day.
The Argentine forward comes to fill a gap that Nicolás Blandi could never do in his year and a half at the club. The shadow of Esteban Paredes still haunts the Monumental Stadium and it is to be expected that the Chucky Ferreyra can finally give us the goals that have been so much needed in recent seasons.
Facundo will arrive at the Cacique after a long career in European football. The Argentine played for Banfield and Vélez Sarsfield in his country before making the leap to the old continent, where he defended the jerseys of Shakhtar Donetsk, Newcastle United (where he could not play due to injury), Benfica, Espanyol and Celta de Vigo.
El Chucky, according to data from Transfermarkt, He played 176 games between 2013 and 2021 in European football, scoring 70 goals in total. His best season was 2017/2018, where with Shakhtar he scored 30 goals in 42 goals played.
It was precisely in Ukraine where he achieved the most titles of his career, getting three Premier League, three Cups and three Super Cups of that country. These championships will be added to the Apertura won with Banfield in 2009 and two First Division tournaments with Vélez Sarsfield in 2012 and 2013.

Interesting numbers that you hope to be able to replicate and why not improve with the Colo Colo jersey under the direction of Gustavo Quinteros. El Cacique needs goals and Chucky Ferreyra is apparently going to give them to him.
