The good moment of Alex Valera in Universitario allowed the national forward to appear among the options of Carlos Tevez to join the ranks of Rosario Central. However, as Jean Ferrari revealed, the attacker has not only approached the Argentine club, but also others that have also tried to sign him.
"There have been approaches with Rosario Central, but there has been no formal purchase proposal. To this day, offers have come from the Middle East. Around four people asked about him, but specifically, two offers have come that have not reached the amounts we are aiming for,” said the cream executive in dialogue with DirectV Sports.
Alex Valera arrived at Universitario de Deportes after showing his goal-scoring ability in Deportivo Llacuabamba. His good performance on the field allowed him to earn a place in the Peruvian National Team, where he was regularly called up by coach Ricardo Gareca.
The cream 'Killer' is the national forward with the best records in recent seasons (this campaign he has 12 goals in 17 games), so the creamers hope he can continue scoring goals to achieve a transfer that is beneficial for both the player and the institution.
Valera gets rid of penalty regret
Universitario achieved its first victory in the Clausura Tournament, after beating U. San Martin 4-0 at the Estadio Monumental. Alex Valera scored the 1-0 through a penalty kick, being responsible for leading the victory, and confessed what he experienced when he missed from the same spot in Peru vs. Australia, for the World Cup Qatar 2022 playoffs.
"What happened against the Australian team was difficult and very tough for me, but the penalty kick at this moment was very important, to have confidence. I must face the problems to score as many goals as I can. This helps my career and my family," said the 26-year-old forward in an interview for Fútbol en América.
