Alberto Rodríguez arrived at Atlético Junior's facilities and shared with the main figures of the team. The 'Mudo' signed and was welcomed by the team's star, forward Teo Gutiérrez.
The 33-year-old central defender will occupy a key position in Alexis Mendoza's lineup, who has always shown interest in the player who was vital in Peru's qualification for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Rodríguez's arrival was an obstacle for the arrival of Miguel Araujo because in Colombia there is a limited quota for foreign players and the coach considers continuity in the months prior to the World Cup vital for the Peruvians.
Junior has important figures such as goalkeeper Sebastián Viera, Sebastián Hernández, Jarlan Barrera, Matías Mier, Yimmi Chará, and Teo Gutiérrez.
In the Copa Libertadores, the 'Tiburón' team will face the winner of the series between Montevideo Wanderers from Uruguay and Olimpia from Paraguay. The goal of the semi-finalist of the 2017 Copa Sudamericana is to advance to group 8, where Boca Juniors, Palmeiras, and Alianza Lima are.
