Robert Moreno rejects offer from Alianza Lima
In the past few hours it was reported that Robert Moreno, Spanish coach, had become the top choice for Alianza Lima to become their head coach. However, international press claims that the former Barcelona coach rejected the opportunity to lead the team for a surprising reason.
SEE Alejandro Mesarina revealed who was the person who disappointed him the most at Alianza Lima.
According to journalist Renzo Galiano from Diario AS, the Spanish strategist does not have anything personal against coming to Peru, but he believes that this is not the right moment for a particular reason. This is why Club Alianza Lima will have to continue searching for a coach for the rest of the season.
"Robert Moreno's rejection. From AS it has been known, in the past few hours, that the Spanish coach contemplated Alianza Lima's proposal. The interest existed, the desire to coach as well, but he wants a project from scratch," reported the sports journalist.
In other words, Robert Moreno found the offer to coach Alianza Lima tempting, but he does not want to be in a team that is already deep into the competition, especially because the Clausura Tournament has already started. This would be the only impediment for the Spanish coach to accept the offer from the white and blue club.

However, it's also important to note that he was an assistant coach to Luis Enrique for three seasons and even won the UEFA Champions League with Barcelona.
