Sporting Cristal: the player that the Celestes have in sight to strengthen their attack [VIDEO]

Many will not forget the goal he scored in the 2015 final in Arequipa. With one minute left in the match, he took the title away from Sporting Cristal. Now, that same player, who scored four goals against the rimenses, could join the squad. Yes, we are talking about Bernardo Cuesta.

The current striker for Junior de Barranquilla doesn't have many opportunities in Colombia, but in Peru he proved to have a good level. And they have already contacted him from Rimac to know his situation and study the option of a loan for the Clausura Tournament, when the transfer window opens.

Sporting Cristal: Is Chemo Del Solar's team the worst of recent years?

'Berni' has played 13 games in Colombia, but only four of them as a starter. And in the league, he only scored one goal. After being a starter in the first three matches (and playing the full 90 minutes), he only started in one of the other 10, and in no match did he exceed 70 minutes. He lost his position.

That could weigh in to evaluate whether he is loaned to another team or not. Scoring goals is not a fundamental problem for Sporting Cristal, but here his quality is proven: a couple of good games would be enough to confirm that his quality remains.

Between 2012 and 2016, Bernardo Cuesta scored 71 goals. A figure that propels him as the foreigner with the most goals in the history of 'Domino'.

Sporting Cristal would change one foreigner for another. The ones whose contracts are about to end are Rolando Blackburn (at the end of the month) and Diego Ifrán (end of August). If the deal with Bernardo Cuesta goes through, one of them would be sacrificed (or both).

Today what the club needs is results. And for that, goals. The club seems to bet, above all, on strengthening the attack.
