FC Emmen announced weeks ago the additions of Fernando Pacheco and Gonzalo Sánchez to play in the Eredivisie in the Netherlands. This generated a lot of expectation as the Peruvians will play in one of the most important leagues in Europe. Even the team's coach is more than excited and it has recently been known that he praised one of them.
According to the Dutch portal Dagblad van het Noorden, coach Dick Lukkien is very satisfied with Fernando Pacheco's performance and described him as the "king of dribbling"; he also stated that they have a "diamond in the rough."
How long is Fernando Pacheco's contract?
The Peruvian forward is loaned to Emmen until the end of the year. He was presented by the Eredivisie team. "Pacheco, 23 years old, is a strong and fast forward. He left Club Sporting Cristal, where he enjoyed much of his training, in 2020 for an adventure with Fluminense and Juventude in Brazil. In January 2022, he returned to Club Sporting Cristal. He is also a permanent force in Peru's national youth teams," the team's website published.
YOU CAN SEE: Not even the salaries of the Peruvians in MLS match it: the exorbitant amount that Raúl Ruidíaz receives.
