Universitario de Deportes lived one of the worst moments in its history in the 2018 season, because they did not have good performances and this caused them to be close to losing their category. Although the fans were fundamental in reversing this situation, Argentine Germán Denis arrived to contribute and become the 'hero' thanks to his goals.

And indeed, the popular 'Tanque' showed leadership and personality from the first game, which allowed him to score a total of 16 goals in 30 matches during his time with the 'crema'.

However, the most remembered match of the experienced attacker was against Sport Huancayo at the Estadio Nacional, as around the 32nd minute of the game, Denis took advantage of a rebound in the area and struck the ball with power for the only goal of the match.

Finally, it is important to mention that Germán Denis left Universitario halfway through the 2019 season, as he received an offer from Regina in Italy and did not hesitate to accept it, especially because the contract was long-term.

What is Germán Denis doing nowadays?

Despite being 41 years old now, Germán Denis is still active and currently plays for Real Calepina, a club that participates in the Serie D in Italy. He has not mentioned when he will retire from football, but he is still fundamental.
