The vacation period has ended for university students.
Pumas reported to the Sports Medicine Department's facilities to undergo the corresponding medical tests and thus begin the preseason for the upcoming Apertura 2023 tournament. The objectives of the directive led by engineer Leopoldo Silva, sports vice president Miguel Mejía Barón, and coach Antonio Mhamed are to regain prominence and qualify for the playoffs among the top four in the overall standings.
In view of the needs of the Pedregal team, El Turco is looking for reinforcements and today it seems that the felines have secured the first one. Uruguayan Robert Ismael Ergas joined the university footballers to undergo the corresponding medical tests and thus be able to sign a contract for the next three years with the auriazules. The news will be officialized in the next few hours, and this is how the leadership began to meet Mohamed's demands.
Who is Robert Ergas, reinforcement for Pumas?
The left-back, who measures 1.80 meters tall, emerged from the youth ranks of Defensor club in Uruguay and played for: Boston River, Albacete (Spain), Rentistas, Olimpia, and Cerro Largo.
The arrival of the Uruguayan defender did not cost the Pumas directive anything, as Ergas arrives as a free agent, a situation that gives the University Club the opportunity to make more moves for the next tournament.
Gil Alcalá returns to Pumas
For this Clausura 2023, Antonio Mohamed was looking for a goalkeeper and it seems that he found the goalkeeper he was looking for in Gil Alcalá, so the Pumas directive made the definitive purchase of the goalkeeper, who was loaned to Querétaro last semester.
"Gil has the great advantage that we had him before, we did the tests with him and we know him very well, he is a very professional person, he takes good care of himself, I do not think he will have any problems, we will see him tomorrow and we are really happy that he is here," said Pumas' head of medical services, Eduardo Acosta.
