Available after loan restriction
Salinas is available for Malaga's La Liga clash against Real Sociedad next Sunday, after serving a one-match loan restriction that prevented him from facing parent club Espanyol on Friday.
Analysis: Salinas was ineligible to feature against Espanyol due to a clause in his loan agreement but is now free to return to action against Real Sociedad. The right-back's absence forced Malaga to consider alternative options on the right side of defense, with Carlos Puga among the candidates to fill in. With the restriction no longer applying, Salinas should be in contention to reclaim his regular starting role, although his inclusion in the starting XI will depend on the coaching staff's selection.
Loan-locked vs. Espanyol
Salinas is loan-locked vs. Espanyol and won't be an option for the Oct. 9 match against them, according to Malaga Hoy.
Analysis: The right-back won't be available for this contest, meaning the coaching staff will have to get creative to improvise options on the right side of the defense. Carlos Puga could be an alternative, but he'd be a one-match stopgap since Salinas would be eligible to return against Real Sociedad on Sunday, Oct. 18.
