Alianza Lima suffered a defeat in Matchday 18 of the Apertura Tournament 2023 of the Liga 1 against ADT de Tarma. However, the white and blue team left that scene in the past and now they are focused on their key match against Atlético Mineiro in the Copa Libertadores 2023.
Facing doubts about the possible lineup that Guillermo Salas would send against the Brazilians, it was revealed that the 'intimate team has defined the two positions they will reinforce' to face the Clausura Tournament and the rest of the 2023 season in a great way.
Fernanda Huapaya, journalist from ESPN, affirmed that due to the injuries suffered by Andrés Andrade and Gino Peruzzi, both 'Chicho' and his coaching staff are already considering looking for replacements, who would be a midfielder and a right back.
"Andrade's injury changed Alianza's plans because now they are looking to strengthen themselves in that position (midfielder) for the Clausura Tournament. It wouldn't be something too costly, it would be a player who plays in the Liga 1, precisely in Lima," she said during the 'Equipo F' program.
"If Peruzzi's injury is confirmed, it is very serious, as it seems it is unfortunately, they would also look for a right back," she added about the Argentine.
Finally, it is important to note that Alianza Lima has two spots available to sign players, taking into account that the transfer window will open in the coming days. For that reason, they would secure two signings to fill the positions of the injured players, Andrés Andrade and Gino Peruzzi.
