Off to Asia? Holgado set to miss play-offs with América de Cali
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇪🇸 here. América de Cali is already classified for the finals of the Liga Betplay 2025-I, and has just added a win against Unión Magdalena to stay at the top and achieve the advantage of the invisible Jorge Da Silva could lose an important player for the definition stage. According to a report by El País de Cali, Rodrigo Holgado could be called up by the Malaysia national team, which plays matches in early June for the 2027 Asian Cup qualification. According to El País, the Argentine striker, born in Buenos Aires, has relatives from Malaysia, and is already advanced in the process of obtaining nationality, and thus being able to be called up by the national team of that country. The Malaysia national team plays on June 10 against Vietnam and a few days later against Cape Verde, so Holgado would miss at least three dates of the quadrangular with América de Cali. If Holgado's call-up to the Malaysia national team is confirmed (which still depends on obtaining nationality and a work visa), the striker would join other expected losses for América on the FIFA date, including Juan Fernando Quintero, who will concentrate with the Colombia national team, José Cavadía and Joel Romero the same, but with the U20 team, and Luis Ramos, already reserved by the Peru national team. 📸 NELSON ALMEIDA - AFP or licensors
