Arthur Chaves - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Begins loan with goal Chaves scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Bayern Munich.

Impact To strengthen the team's defense, especially without Chrislain Matsima (thigh) and Jeffrey Gouweleeuw (knee) available, Augsburg signed Chaves on loan. He made his team debut Saturday and made his debut in one of the best ways possible, by logging Augsburg's first and game-tying goal Saturday. On top of the solid defense, and even though the goal scoring is unlikely to continue, Chaves being part of Augsburg's primary defensive line is an ongoing expectation until further notice.

Impact Chaves will hit the sidelines for the club Saturday, as the defender received a knock to the face in training that would require stitches, with the cut too much to compete. Luckily for the club, this won't force a change, as he has gone unused in three of their past four games.
