Throughout its history, America has been characterized by having players who have marked an era, boasting a before and after their time in the team. One of them is without a doubt Salvador Cabañas, the last great 10 of the team, and to whom the tragedy distanced him not only from the Azulcrema club, but from all of football.

One of the most deeply held beliefs about the Cabañas case is that the team did not support him after the attack he suffered. However, this is not true, since not only did America keep its contract, but they organized a charity party to the marshal against the Selection of Paraguay. For this reason, Cabañas claims to be very grateful to the club, making it clear once again that it is false that he did not receive support.
“With America I came out very well, I will always be grateful to them because they did everything possible to fulfill the contract that I had with them, and apart they did a tribute match at that time in America against the Paraguayan team.” Cabañas revealed in an interview for W Deportes.
In that same interview, the Paraguayan revealed that for the moment he is staying away from soccer, because even if he is a coach or part of a technical body, he wants to get on the field to play. For this reason, for the moment he lives only the income from the properties he bought during his time as a player.
“About football almost nothing because I really want to, because if I’m there near the stadium and all that, being a coach or assistant, it tells me a lot because I want to go in and play again. So I don’t want to dedicate myself to a coaching staff ”.
