The former goalkeeper referred to the possibility of Cristian Benavente joining the white and blue team for 2022.

Cristian Benavente could arrive in Peruvian football next year and Alianza Lima is one of the possibilities he would have in mind, according to the program A ras de cancha from LR+. This possibility was discussed in the mentioned space and one of those who referred to it was 'Pancho' Pizarro.

The former goalkeeper considered that Benavente's game would be very useful in the blanquiazul team. "For me, he fits more in Alianza Lima's game. He is a dynamic player who makes a difference," he said. He also explained that the 'Chaval' could struggle to reach Liga 1.

"Definitely getting used to the local environment, to a not so dynamic football, can be difficult for him, but I believe that he can contribute to Alianza Lima," he said.

The former goalkeeper was also critical of Benavente's performance in recent seasons.

"He is overvalued as the player they are pretending him to be. He has not had a good season. If you do the math, there must be something we don't know why he doesn't play. Wherever he has gone, he has not played," he concluded.
