With the announcement of Sporting Cristal pending, Nueva Chicago confirmed that Gonzalo Aguirre will be a new player for the club for the second half of the year.
Through their social media, the Argentine club announced that they agreed with Sporting Cristal for a one-year loan with a fee and an option to buy 50% of the player's economic rights.
Aguirre, one of the standout players in the U-20 South American Championship, arrives at the club in search of the continuity and consolidation that he did not achieve this year at Verdinegro, where he did not play any minutes and was on the substitutes' bench four times.
It is worth noting that the national midfielder had a lot of playing time in 2022 (345', divided into 7 matches) with Nueva Chicago, which earned him a call-up to the U-20 team and subsequently being part of the squad for the previous Sudamericano in Colombia.
Unless unexpected, Gonzalo Aguirre will be Sporting Cristal's final reinforcement for the second half of the year. Before that, the club from La Florida added Franco Medina and Nicolás Pasquini, in addition to securing the returns of Percy Liza and Diego Soto.
