Universitario de Deportes is looking to strengthen for the Liga 1 2023, and for its midfield, they have in mind an Argentine midfielder from Rosario Central.
Universitario de Deportes knows that it has a pending debt with Peruvian football because next season marks 10 years since the last time it was able to become champion, and this season did not go very well for them, as they could not qualify for the Copa Libertadores. For this reason, the Crema team is looking to strengthen themselves with an Argentine midfielder who belongs to Rosario Central.
Joel López Pissano, a 25-year-old midfielder who had a great year with Atlético Grau in the Liga 1, is the player in question and has aroused the interest of the Merengue team. It is worth noting that, despite playing in the Peruvian league, his transfer rights still belong to the Argentine team.
According to journalist Gustavo Peralta, López Pissano has been on Universitario's radar for weeks, but his arrival would be conditioned by how many foreign players leave the club. So far, there is no information about any formal offer made by the 'U'.
On the other hand, Universitario is also looking to sign other players such as forward Adrián Fernández from Alianza Atlético, and Panamanian Abdiel Ayarsa, who currently plays for Cusco FC in the Liga 2. It is worth mentioning that since the departure of Alex Valera, and despite the goals scored by Alexander Succar, the club's scoring rate has decreased.
Finally, Andy Polo, a World Cup player, has reached an agreement to renew his contract with the team from Ate. He will continue with the 'U' throughout 2023 and will seek the long-awaited 27th championship.
