Salvador Cabañas Ortega (born August 5, 1980 in Asunción, Paraguay) is a Paraguayan football striker, who currently plays for Club América of the Primera División de México.
Cabañas started his career at Paraguayan club 12 de Octubre before moving to Audax Italiano of Chile. Afterwards he joined Jaguares from Audax Italiano before the 2003 Apertura. That season, Cabañas went on to play in 18 games for the team, scoring five goals. He came into his own in the 2004 Clausura, however, as he scored 15 goals in 20 games for the club. He would lead the club in goals again in the 2004 Apertura, with eight in 16 matches.
Following the Clausura 2006 season in which Cabañas won his first goalscoring crown in the Mexican League, he attracted the attention of Club América, one of the most important clubs in the country, and was signed by the Mexico City squad prior to the Apertura 2006 season.
