Injury of Andrés Andrade and his absence is something that has been noticed in Alianza Lima. Remember that the player has not played with the team since July 23 when he played 23 minutes in the goalless draw against Universitario in the Clausura Tournament.
After that match, the 'Rifle' suffered a torn ACL, an injury for which he had to undergo surgery in Medellin, Colombia. But now, it has been revealed that the player has just returned to Lima with good news for the blanquiazul fans, and that is that he will finish his treatment here.
"Andrés Andrade is in Lima and will also have his recovery in the capital. The Alianza player has been doing gym work," announced journalist Gerson Cuba.
The skilled midfielder will finish his recovery in Lima near the Alianza squad, which is focused on reaching first place in the Clausura Tournament to win the Liga 1 title without the need to play a final. But for now, it is unknown if Andrade will arrive in time for the final stretch of the championship.
What have been Andrade's numbers with Alianza?
Andrade has only played in 16 matches so far in 2023 with Alianza Lima, scoring 2 goals and providing 3 assists. It is clear that his torn meniscus and ACL injury have prevented us from seeing the full potential of the Colombian.
