Alianza Lima is one of the institutions that values the 'gems' it has in its youth academy and that exports the most players abroad. Many of them have been showing a great level, which allows them to later make the leap abroad.
Carlos Gomez, a young white and blue colt, is one of those who recently fulfilled his dream of going abroad. According to journalist Gerson Cuba, his next destination would be Cruzeiro in Brazil for a year.
It is also worth noting that the transfer of the young footballer from Alianza Lima will be on loan and it will be his first experience outside of Peru. Next, we'll tell you more about the profile of one of the 'gems' of the double champion team.
