Mauricio Larriera is already thinking about 2024: why does he prioritize the renewal of Gino Peruzzi?

It will be a start with a lot of activity in Alianza Lima, with the functioning of all areas at the service of the institution, and where the sports management will have to hold a meeting of utmost importance that aims to ensure the contract renewal for a player who is considered by the white and blue universe as one of the fundamental players for the team.

Thinking about 2024

The player who enjoys the trust of the white and blue institution is a foreigner who arrived at the club in the middle of last season and was essential for the conquest of the national championship. His game gives solidity to the defense and a powerful variant to the attack. He was born 31 years ago in Corral de Bustos, Argentina, defended the shirt of Boca Juniors and is one of the coach's favorites.

Mauricio Larriera wants him in his team for the 2024 season that secured the Copa Libertadores de América and the sports department is already working on it. The player they want to keep longer in Matute is Gino Peruzzi. 3,285 minutes of play in the Liga 1 Betsson since his arrival in mid-2022 until today; 38 games, of which he started in 25, and two goals shouted at the top of his lungs.

The former Vélez Sarsfield, Boca Juniors, Nacional (Uruguay), and San Lorenzo player also played 180 minutes in the last edition of the Copa Libertadores. He was in the right back of the squad that broke the streak of 30 games without a win at the international level after the 2-1 victory against Libertad in Asuncion. And he was in the 2-0 defeat when they visited Atlético Mineiro at the Raimundo Sampaio stadium.

Depor, regarding this, was able to learn that there has already been a preliminary conversation between the parties and that negotiations would begin this week. It is worth noting that, if the management is positive, the clause in the contract would be activated, which states that if all the sports objectives are met, the contract is automatically extended until the end of the 2024 season.

So far this season, Alianza Lima has already fulfilled some sports objectives: they won the Apertura Tournament, qualified for the Copa Libertadores, and is in the dispute to win the Clausura Tournament, which, if achieved, will secure the 'Tri' directly, avoiding playing the final for which they have already qualified in advance. However, one goal this 2023 season was to advance to the next round of the Cup and they did not achieve it.
