Universitario de Deportes Laments Departure of Key Players

With the departure of important players from Universitario de Deportes, such as Luis Tejada, fans lament losing strikers Hernán Rengifo and Adrián Ugarriza in mid-2017. Today, they could be filling the '9' position in the team. For this reason, 'Charapa' confessed to El Bocón and stated that leaving was a tough decision, but he hopes that the club does well because he has affection for them.

Divided Opinions

"Regarding my departure from Universitario de Deportes, opinions are divided. Some think it was good that I left, while others disagree. It was difficult to make such a decision, but I had to do it. From within, all I want is for this great club to do well because I have great affection for them and I still have friends there," added Hernán Rengifo, who will continue wearing the Melgar jersey this year.

Aiming for the Title with Melgar

On the other hand, regarding his current situation at Melgar in Arequipa, the 'Charapa' commented, "New teammates have arrived and Bernardo Cuesta has returned, who has achieved important things with Melgar and was the top scorer here. Just like Ysrael Zuñiga, and a few others who had a good 2017. We have the illusion of fighting for the title and we are working hard to achieve it," concluded Hernán Rengifo.
