Sporting Cristal aims to win the Liga 1 2023 title and also wants to advance as far as possible in the Copa Libertadores. That's why they will start building the squad that will be led by Tiago Nunes in the next season and, in that sense, they announced news on social media.

The celestial team announced that Joffre Escobar, who was on loan from Huachipato, will not continue with the team. The forward arrived halfway through the year at the rimense store and played 18 matches, scoring 4 goals.

The departure of the forward adds to those of players like Omar Merlo, Christopher Olivares, Jhon Marchán, José María Inga, Horacio Calcaterra, and Aryan Romani. Now, the Ecuadorian footballer, who also played for San Martín, will have to return to the Chilean team.

On the other hand, the goal is secured in Sporting Cristal, as a few days ago they officially announced the renewal of Alejandro Duarte and now they announced that Renato Solís extends his contract until 2023. The goalkeeper played 11 matches in the 2022 season.

In the same line, Irven Ávila, Alejandro Hohberg, and Nilson Loyola are other players who will continue in the bajopontino team. However, the celestial fans await reinforcements for the next campaign and thus, avenge the bitterness left by the elimination against Melgar in the semifinals of the local tournament this year.
