Piero Quispe: the players from the Universitario quarries who have been enthusiastic in recent times

Shy, it is difficult for him to speak in front of the cameras, he prefers to do it on the field, he is 20 years old and the fan of Sports University It reminds him of Edison Flores. His name is Piero Quispe and it is the youthful one that has filled the eyes of the demanding cream follower. That fan who does not see a footballer out of the quarries, stand out in the first team for several seasons. It’s hard to believe, but surprisingly the ‘U’ is not a club that exports players from its minor divisions.

The great goal he scored Piero Quispe in view of Sport Huancayo It is not something that is surprising in the internship of the University. The offensive midfielder is one of the youth players who has shown the most interesting things in recent years.

“One of the ones that caught my attention the most is Piero Quispe, the one who plays midfielder with me. He is a kid who has very good conditions. He is a youth in whom the club trusts him a lot. He has a good present and is going to have a great future ”, Hernán Novick declared a few months ago about Piero Quispe.

The Uruguayan is one of those who advises him the most. What’s more, according to Piero Quispe, Novick He told him that it reminded him of his beginnings in football. That is why he tries to help him, correct him in training and advise him to continue growing.

Piero Quispe He already told his story in all the interviews he gave after his goal. His cell phone has not stopped ringing these days. He responds without any problem and knows that football is about moments. He does not want to get dizzy because they are just his first steps in the First Division.

The last time Universitario had a player who dazzled the fans was in 2018 with Paulo de la Cruz. At just 18 he was promoted to the first team and made his debut in a Cream Night where with a couple of plays he put the fans in his pocket. Unfortunately, its growth stalled after Pedro Troglio left the ‘U’.

Perhaps many do not remember it, but Nelson Cabanillas also left academic in 2018, to play San Luis de Quillota (Chile). In the cream store they could not contract him due to a sanction that the Licensing Commission placed on the creams. Then he returned in 2019 and just this year his career is on the rise as a left winger.

In recent years there are few cases of success in Sports University. The last player who was sold by the ‘U’ was Roberto Siucho. The Guangzhou Evergrande of China paid close to a million dollars for the attacker. The cream team received $ 800 because they only had 60% of the footballer’s pass.

Then we would have to go until the time of Edison Flores, Andy Polo and Christofer Gonzales that also came out of the quarries of Universitario. Both players were champions of the 2011 U-20 Copa Libertadores. Of that group, they are the only ones who made the great leap abroad.

Edison Flores He went through Villarreal, Aalborg BK, Morelia and now plays for DC United in MLS. The ‘Oreja’ continues to be one of the players most loved by the cream fan for everything he left on the field of play. His passage through the ‘U’ is well remembered.

With Andy Polo yes there were several contractual problems. University had arranged with Genoa of Italy for the transfer of the forward; however, it all ended in a tremendous mess. The player left a cream shop in 2012, then returned in 2015 and ended up going abroad to play for Morelia.

For its part, Christofer Gonzales He also had great seasons with Universitario. Moreover, he was the figure of the last cream title in 2013. After several years in the ‘U’, in 2015 he signed for Colo Colo from Chile, leaving profits in the coffers of the merengue club.

Raúl Ruidíaz He is another of the players who was trained at the University and made the great leap abroad. The ‘Enano’ debuted in 2009 where he was the revelation player. In 2012, the forward went to the “U” of Chile where he also did an acceptable job.

The great challenge of the new administration of academic in sports it is to strengthen the minor divisions. Such a big club cannot sell few players. Piero Quispe is in that process of possible transferable. Hopefully I did not end up falling like several creamy youth players.
