Daniel Ahmed: "Gareca knows all the Under-20 players"

In an interview with El Comercio, Ahmed referred to the possibility of temporarily coaching the Peruvian national team for the European friendlies if Gareca is not available and the sports management asks him to do so.

"I am guided by projects. Today I have this youth project that involves me. The senior project should have a development and not momentary insertions. It is a matter that the Federation needs to analyze, but today my project is with the youth and I am interested in seeing it through. It would be a shame for it to be left behind. It would be fantastic if Ricardo stays. It is very difficult for national teams to come together, we have to continue working on that and aim for more," said Daniel Ahmed.
