Alianza Lima officially announced the departure of Guillermo Salas and with it, Colombian Nixon Perea will take charge of the blanquiazul club, while the club's management is in search of a new coach who can strengthen the current moment of the two-time champions in the Liga 1 2023.
Among the names that have been mentioned in La Victoria, there are some that have relevance in South American football, such as Ricardo Gareca, who arrived in Peru and the fans asked him to coach the blanquiazul team.
Others are approached by the fans themselves due to the performance they have been showing in the Liga 1. This is the case with Tiago Nunes, the current coach of Sporting Cristal.
The journalist Peter Arévalo revealed that Alianza Lima spoke with Tiago Nunes, but that was before renewing Guillermo Salas. Now it would be impossible for the Brazilian coach to take over the technical direction of the victorian club.
"We talked to Tiago Nunes before renewing 'Chicho' Salas. He was a coach who was considered by Alianza Lima. It doesn't make sense (to sign him now), we talked about it in December, that's where the conversation took place," said Peter Arévalo on his program Madrugol.
