The very important move with Diego Valencia announced Atromitos!
The “blue and white” acquired the international Chilean ace – who can play in all positions of attack – in the form of the one-year-old lending from the Salernitana (with which they have a good channel of communication since the case of Keshrida).
A difficult case that ultimately ended positively for Atromitos.
In detail, the announcement of Atromitos:
The additions to our team for this summer now reach eleven.
PAE Atromitos announces the signing of Diego Valencia on a one-year loan from Salernitana.
Diego Valencia (14/1/2000) is an international with the Chilean national team and can play in all attacking positions with equal ease. He took his first football steps at the Academies of La Serena and from there he switched to Católica.
With Universidad Católica he made his professional debut at the age of 18 and from the 2018/19 season he became an integral member of their team having a total of 132 appearances, 31 goals and 13 assists until the summer of 2022. With his presence, he contributed the most to winning four consecutive championships in Chile (2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021), but three Super Cups (2018/19, 2019/20, 2020/21).
In 2022, thanks to his appearances, he managed the big step for Europe, as he was acquired by Salernitana, making a total of 13 appearances in Serie A.
With the conclusion of the agreement, Diego Valencia made his first statements on atromitosfc.gr.
“I am very happy that everything is over and I am now a player of Atromitos. I have spoken to many people during this time and they have told me the best about the conditions I will find in the team and the championship.
In particular, especially recently, I also spoke with the national coach of Greece, Gustavo Poget, with whom we were together in Chile for a while, and he spoke in the best words about Atromitos, the team and the facilities it has, which they will help me improve as much as possible as a player.
I want to thank for today’s development the management of the team and the Technical Director who did everything for me to come to Atromitos, because I know it was a very difficult task, but also the coach, who chose me to strengthen Atromitos this season .
The people here have informed me that this year in particular is very important for the history of the club, as it marks 100 years of Atromitos’ life, so let’s all go together, people and team to do our best to please our fans!”.
