"I came to feel alive", explained Salas about his arrival at the Mendocino squad. "I didn't feel like a player. I follow orders, but I don't agree with them. Above all, there is the human aspect, the person. Beyond the fact that a group of players had a good or bad semester, we are people. That's what one values. I'm angry because we were treated very badly", Salas said.

With 37 appearances and seven goals, Salas ended a brief cycle at the Núñez institution. "Longoria called us by phone a day before the pre-season started and told us we didn't have to show up. I would have liked for Coudet to tell me, but we have to follow orders from above", expressed the native of Misiones.
