Being a left-footed player with good ball control and incisive play, the Muñeco takes him along following the injury of Matías Rojas, who will miss the next four matches for the Millonario.
On the other hand, it remains to be seen if Gallardo will include him on the bench. Let's remember that Agustín De La Cuesta, a midfielder from the reserves, was left out of the bench against the Rojo.

Former Premier League referee Coote gets 8-week ban for offensive comments about Klopp
LONDON (AP) — Former Premier League referee David Coote has been banned for eight weeks and ordered to take a face-to-face education program for making offensive comments about Jürgen Klopp in a private video that ended up being widely circulated on social media, leading to the match official getting fired. Coote admitted to a Football Association charge of acting 'in an improper manner' and/or using 'abusive and/or insulting words' in a video recorded around July 2020. Two videos, apparently filmed using a phone, circulated on social media appearing to show Coote giving his personal opinion on Liverpool and Klopp, its long-time former manager, when asked by an unidentified man. Coote uses an expletive for Liverpool and a derogatory term for Klopp, saying he disliked the German manager because he was 'arrogant' and 'accused me of lying' after one game. The FA charge including an allegation that Coote's actions constituted an 'aggravated breach' of rules because they 'included a reference — whether express or implied — to nationality.' An independent regulatory commission announced on Tuesday it had imposed the new sanctions on Coote following a hearing. Coote was initially suspended for his conduct and then fired in December because his position was deemed 'untenable' by English soccer's referees body following an investigation into his conduct. Coote was also investigated by the FA following allegations in British newspaper The Sun that he discussed with a fan the possibility of giving a yellow card to a player in a match. The former referee denied any wrongdoing and the FA said in June that no charges were issued in relation to that investigation. Separately, UEFA launched an investigation into Coote following a video, again published by The Sun, allegedly showing him using cocaine during the European Championship this year. ___

Cristiano Ronaldo's longtime girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez announces engagement by showing off massive ring
Soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has put quite the ring on his longtime girlfriend's finger. Ronaldo, 40, and Georgina Rodriguez, who has been his girlfriend since 2017, are now engaged, as the latter shared as such on Monday. In an Instagram post, Rodriguez showed off her new, massive, oval-shaped engagement ring with a heartwarming caption in Spanish. "Yes, I do. In this and in all my lives," Rodriguez's caption read when translated to English. Rodriguez was rumored to be engaged to Ronaldo, as she's been seen with a ring on that finger. However, this is the first time she has posted wearing it. Ronaldo and Rodriguez made waves when they showed up together for the Best FIFA Football Awards in Zurich in January 2017. In May of that year, they made their relationship Instagram official. The couple share five children with 8-year-old twins Eva Maria and Mateo, daughters Alana, 7, and Bella, 3, and Cristiano Jr., a 15-year-old from a previous Ronaldo relationship. The couple also announced the death of Ángel, Bella's newborn twin brother, in April 2022. Given their lengthy relationship, there was always wonder about whether Ronaldo and Rodriguez would get married. During a Netflix docuseries, 'I Am Georgina,' Rodriguez discussed their future together. "They're always joking about the wedding, 'When is the wedding?'" Rodriguez said about her friends in the documentary, which was released earlier this year. "Since Jennifer Lopez's song, 'The Ring Or When,' came out, they started singing it to me. And well, this is not up to me." Ronaldo, then, chimed in. "I always tell her, when we get that click," he said, while snapping his fingers. "Like everything with our life, and I know she knows what I'm talking about. It could be in a year, or it could be in six months, or it could be in a month. I'm 1,000% sure that it'll happen." Ronaldo, the Portuguese star, currently plays for Al-Nassr, a club in the Saudi Pro League. He signed a two-year extension in June that keeps him with the club through June 2027.
