According to Tiago Nunes' statements, he has not had any approach with Cruzeiro and does not intend to do so, due to the contractual relationship he has with Sporting Cristal. It is worth mentioning that there was also an inquiry from a Peruvian team, but it was immediately rejected.

"I did not authorize any agent to offer me to Cruzeiro. I have a signed commitment with Sporting Cristal until the end of the season," stated the Brazilian, who also confirmed that he is "happy and doing his job".

Nunes, with a great present in Sporting Cristal, is only focused on facing these seven remaining matches as a true final, as he is very close to becoming the champion of the Clausura and with it, he will play the final to define the national championship.

In Rímac, there are no distractions of any kind and they only think about winning. Their closest match is on Sunday, September 10, against Sport Boys at the Miguel Grau stadium. They will then face another 'final' against Universitario. This match will be crucial for both clubs.
