Nobody in the division bettered it last month: 6 goals in 5 appearances for Colo-Colo.
Scoring charts1 Aug 2028
Marked 8.16 across it, 7 goals and assists between them, and no serious argument from anybody else in the division. Colo-Colo have had the whole benefit of a month somebody else will spend the summer trying to buy.

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Universidad de Concepcion people have started saying his name in the past tense.

The division's brightest kid this month plays for Deportes La Serena
Tomás Aranda was marked 7.26 and had a hand in 1 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Cobresal, and it is not being withdrawn.

The bid was some way short and Coquimbo Unido did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

The division’s top provider is Elías López — 7.16
4 assists across the month from a Universidad de Chile player marked 7.16. Somebody has to open the door before anybody walks through it, and nobody in the league opened more.

Agustín Venezia is the division’s leading scorer
3 goals in 4 games, and nobody else in the league close to it. Iquique have the man every defence in the division is planning around.
Scoring charts1 Jul 2028
Everybody in the division was measured and a Iquique man came out on top: 7.99 across the month and 4 goal contributions. There is no serious case for anybody else.

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Universidad Catolica have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Milan Roki is the month's best young player — 6.63

A club's paper reports this as one of its own being honoured. On this page it is what it actually is: a verdict on everybody who played, and it went to a Universidad de Chile man on 7.80 with 5 goal contributions.
