About the Note
Universitario is about to face their match against Cienciano for the Copa Sudamericana. While the team is preparing to the fullest, they will have a significant absence, none other than Alex Valera. The forward, who won't be able to play this Thursday, surprised everyone when he left training and spoke openly about Christian Cueva joining Alianza Lima.
The most popular player, known as 'Valegol', spoke to the press and, among all his impressions, hinted that he is happy about 'Aladino' joining their eternal rival because it will make a great contribution to the local championship.
"He's a great player. He will contribute a lot in the local league and I just wish him good luck", said the striker to GOLPERÚ.
As you know, both players shared a team a few months ago when they defended the Al-Fateh shirt. Now, they could face each other as rivals in the next Peruvian football classic.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that Christian Cueva still belongs to the Arab team, as he has a contract until 2025. His connection with Alianza Lima will be for the next six months.
Why did Valera and Cueva leave Al-Fateh?
The main reason why Alex Valera and Christian Cueva left Al-Fateh was due to non-compliance with payments.
