Independiente has finally secured the necessary clearance for Ávila to join the team. The club had to free up a spot for him, which was achieved by loaning out 21-year-old defender Luciano Barros Ayala to Plaza Colonia in Uruguay. This means that Ávila will be available for selection for the upcoming match against Gimnasia de Mendoza. The news is a boost for coach Jadson Viera, who has limited options in attack following the departure of Gabriel Ávalos to Olimpia in Paraguay. Ávila, who played 30 games for Betis in LaLiga, the Europa League, and the Copa del Rey, scoring three goals and providing three assists, will be a valuable addition to the team.
