What Bellina says about the signings of Alianza Lima

The sports manager of Alianza Lima, José Bellina, said at a press conference that “there are many situations that are going to occur in football and in the transfer market, I am going to clarify this situation without a doubt. It has sounded a lot in the press and without a doubt we are going to clarify it so that it is known how the process and the outcome were in the coming days.

Another point that Bellina touched on was the average age of the team: “It was definitely a goal, so we projected to have a team with an average age of 27 to a little more. We have 25% of the squad over 30 years of age, 25% Under-23 players and 50% 24-30, so we are quite calm since we believe it is a balanced squad from age, unlike previous years”.

He also added that “there is one more incorporation that will be announced in the next few hours and there is one that we also believe will help us a lot.” For now, they have already announced Gabriel Costa, Franco Zanelatto (he was on loan), Jesús Castillo, Edinson Chávez and Bryan Reyna, who played this season in Colo Colo, Alianza Atlético, Academia Cantolao, Ayacucho FC and Academia Cantolao, respectively.
