The 29-year-old footballer left UTC in 2021 and was left without a team awaiting attractive offers in the market. However, Gómez did not receive a call from any Liga 1 team and had to wait 6 months to be signed by Deportivo Llacuabamba.
The blue and white team decided to bring in the controversial Alexi Gómez to fight for promotion in Liga 2, and the player responded to the trust. In the match between Deportivo Llacuabamba vs. Unión Huaral, the Hiena wore the number 10 shirt and was a standout.
The match became difficult for Alexi Gómez, as Unión Huaral took the lead and harmed Deportivo Llacuabamba's interests. However, in the second half, the number 10 was the team's playmaker and the final score was a convincing 3-1. In this way, the start of the Clausura was optimal for the La Libertad team.
Nevertheless, Alexi Gómez was filled with joy and used his social media to express his return to football. In his Instagram account, the message was seen: "When prayers go up, blessings come down... good new beginning".
Finally, Alexi Gómez maintains the hope of continuing at that level and achieving glory with Deportivo Llacuabamba, which hopes to be promoted at the end of the year. So far, the start of the La Libertad club has been great.
