Universitario announces Germán Denis' departure

'Universitario de Deportes announces the departure of Germán Denis to Italian football. The Argentinian player resolved his contract with Universitario understanding the relevance for his future professional career. We thank Germán for his dedication, respect, and commitment to our institution throughout the year in which he defended our sacred crema shirt in a great way. Good luck in your professional future, Germán!', Universitario informed in an official statement.

Thus, the front of Universitario de Deportes will be weakened with the departure of their most important forward. Now Ángel Comizzo will have to find a player who can replace the Argentinian in a position with very few alternatives within the main squad. Without a doubt, it is another inconvenience for the team that seeks to become the champion of Peruvian football in this 2019 season.

'It wasn't in my mind to leave, I was happy to be at Universitario and fight for the championship, but I was called from Italy to offer me a two-year contract and a job prospect in Reggina, Italy, with my family. Beyond the fact that I was very good in Lima, personal decisions often weigh more at this stage of my life. I arrived at U in a difficult moment, I didn't know what this club really was, I value it a lot and I will always have it in my life. The club treated me very well, I will always be grateful',

Germán Denis commented after his departure from Universitario de Deportes was confirmed.
