The month closes with Javier Correa out in front — 5 goals in 4 games, and Colo-Colo have the division's most feared finisher.

Marked 8.13 across it, 5 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 division's brightest kid this month plays for O'Higgins
Sebastián Mella was marked 7.44 and had a hand in 0 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Cobresal can pretend not to have heard.

Nobody made more than Raúl Olivares this month
3 assists, 6.87, and a Santiago Wanderers player who spent four weekends being the reason somebody else's name went in the paper. It is the least-rewarded skill in football and the easiest one to notice its absence.

Tomás Alarcón is the division's best-marked player — 8.18
The chart that catches everybody a goal tally never will: the centre-half who was immense for four weekends, the holding midfielder nobody outside his own ground has heard of. 8.18 across 4 matches for Colo-Colo.

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

The deal that would have taken Sebastián Parada to Universidad de Concepcion has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to San Luis with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Javier Altamirano wants continental football; whether Universidad de Chile can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.
