Universitario de Deportes: Juan Manuel Vargas will not travel to Huancayo.

Juan Manuel Vargas was discarded to travel to Huancayo and, with no more matches this month, it could be the end of the story he wrote at Universitario de Deportes this year. The link between the full-back and the club lasts until the end of the month and neither of the parties has given any signs that anticipate a possible renewal. However, despite playing little this year and being initially seen as out of shape, it is known that his continuity will be analyzed this week and the player's priority is to stay.

Encouraging end

In his last match against Alianza Atlético, which was played midweek, Juan Manuel Vargas performed well as a full-back and occasionally as a central defender after Schuler's departure. Nevertheless, he did not commit fouls near the box and did not receive a yellow card. In addition, the former Real Betis player tried shooting from outside and pushing the team forward. Furthermore, it was even said that it was his best match since his return to Universitario de Deportes.

Another injury

However, when it seemed that 'Loco' Juan Manuel Vargas was going to take advantage of tomorrow's match to confirm his improvement, he suffered a blow to the ankle of his left foot, which left him out of the list of players to travel today. With this, out of the 22 matches that Universitario de Deportes has played (including tomorrow's), Juan has only been in 11. And, of those, he has only remained on the field for the full ninety minutes in six. The rest he missed due to injuries or his poor physical condition (weight).

They would bet on him

However, these negative figures would not be a problem to negotiate an extension of his contract with the team. EL BOCÓN found out that Vargas has already expressed his desire to stay at Universitario de Deportes, as he has not received offers from elsewhere yet. And the board does not rule out a renewal.

The match that 'Loco' Juan Manuel Vargas played against Sullana pleased the entire coaching staff of Universitario de Deportes, who already sees the results of the diet and training sessions he underwent. In fact, it is known that the agreement was not signed due to lack of time, as they are playing every three days.
