Alianza Lima reveals new discharge: they sent a heartfelt farewell message to José Manzaneda

The Alianza Lima technical command has defined its priorities for the 2022 season, based essentially on the results of this year, which ended with the League 1 title. Some players will no longer be on the squad and this Friday the departure of José Manzaneda.

As it is remembered, the soccer player marked his return to the La Victoria team with the intention of helping them in their fight to return to the First Division of Peruvian football. However, he could not earn a place in the starting team of Carlos Bustos, so he will have to move away from the club he is so fond of.

In addition, José Manzaneda did not add many minutes in the year with Alianza Lima, which further complicated his stay in Matute. The arrival of Edgar Benítez took away opportunities, the same ones that he will have to look for in another national football team.

There are even options that the footballer manages, although he is waiting to reach an agreement in the negotiations with the interested parties to regain the prominence to which he was accustomed and that allowed him to be part of a microcycle in the Ricardo Gareca era .

How many games did José Manzaneda play in Alianza Lima?

José Manzaneda’s campaign in the ranks of Alianza Lima has not been successful at all and this is reflected in his personal statistics. Throughout the season in League 1, he only played five games (three as a starter) and had the opportunity to celebrate a goal: he scored 2-2 against Cusco FC at the start of the championship.

In the first weeks, he was well regarded by Carlos Bustos, but little by little he was left out of the main squad. The last time the footballer wore the ‘Blanquiazul’ shirt was on May 7, in the 2-0 victory over Binacional. Henceforth, it did not appear on the list.
