Peru Enhances Squad for Santiago Friendly Against Chile with New Additions

Key Players Join Peru’s Squad for Friendly Match

The Peruvian Football Federation (FPF) has announced the inclusion of Álvaro Rojas and D’Alessandro Montenegro in the national team for the upcoming friendly against Chile in Santiago. These new additions promise to bring fresh talent to the squad.

Álvaro Rojas: A Rising Midfield Star

The young midfielder Álvaro Rojas, currently 20 years old, has shown great potential through his performances in two South American U-20 Championships and a Pre-Olympic U-23 in 2024. Rojas, who plays for Universitario and is currently on loan at Juan Pablo II, could make his senior debut at the Estadio Bicentenario de La Florida, providing depth and versatility in the midfield.

D’Alessandro Montenegro: Strengthening the Defense

At 22 years old, defender D’Alessandro Montenegro offers a promising option as a right-back, a position currently limited to Matías Lazo. Montenegro’s potential inclusion in the starting lineup will be an important asset for the team’s defensive strategies in the upcoming match.

Debut Opportunities for Promising Talent

Both Rojas and Montenegro have been training as sparring partners at Videna, progressing towards their potential debut with the Peruvian national team. Their presence is expected to energize the squad and offer new dynamics in their respective positions.
