José Salomón Rondón Giménez
José Salomón Rondón Giménez is a classic target man who attacks space and holds up the ball for Pachuca. Rondón came through River Plate, won the 2023 Argentine title, and later claimed Zenit domestic honours. He also played in La Liga. The 2024 CONCACAF Champions Cup title as Pachuca's top scorer was a turning point. In 2025 he featured in the Club World Cup and returned to Pachuca in January 2026 after a spell at Real Oviedo. He is Venezuela's all-time top scorer and captains the national team. Rondón's game centers on finishing moves and winning headers. He attacks the back post and drives at defenders.
