Guillermo Ochoa has made a huge impression in his short spell with Salernitana in Italy with the Mexican goalkeeper being named as the ‘Player of the Season’ for the Serie side. Despite not participating in last home game of the season, the former ‘Águilas del América’ was on hand to collect his award ahead of the 3-2 win against Udinese.

Ochoa’s heroics for Salernitana ensured that the southern Italian side managed to maintain their top flight status and will be back in Serie A for the 2023/24 season.

Uncertain future

Ochoa moved to Salerno in January of this year with a deal that runs out on 30 June and amid interest from the likes of Inter Milan and AC Milan, Salernitana have offered the veteran keeper a contract renewal.

At present, no-one knows for which team Ochoa will play next season but the veteran Mexican stopper is expected to stay in Serie A for at least another year.
