Christian Cueva and his time at Alianza Lima
He finished his second stage at Alianza Lima amidst much disillusionment. Christian Cueva will not be included in the list of renewals for 2024 with the blanquiazules, due to his poor performance since his arrival earlier this year in La Victoria.
'Aladino' was ruled out of playing the two finals against Universitario. The knee injury he suffers from is complicated and he even plans to undergo surgery, which will keep him off the field for more than six months. Additionally, the high salary he receives is not consistent with his performance.
Christian Cueva arrived in La Victoria last March, and in his first contract, which lasted until August, he earned $100,000 monthly, totaling $600,000 in 22 games including the Liga 1 and Copa Libertadores. After that, he renewed his contract from September to November, reducing his salary to $50,000 and receiving a total of $150,000, but only playing in five matches. This situation did not benefit Alianza Lima as planned. In total, it was '750 thousand dollars down the drain'.
If we look closely, the '10' of the 'íntimos' earned $513.3 per minute played. Cueva's performance was truly poor, as he only played 1461 minutes with Alianza Lima and did not score any goals. A forgettable period.
