Jorge Fossati is well aware of the challenges facing Paolo Guerrero at Universidad César Vallejo. The veteran forward, known as the ‘Predator,’ is eager to part ways with the Trujillo club as he seeks a new challenge in the second half of the 2024 season.
This situation has garnered the attention of the Peruvian national team coach, who expressed concern during a recent press conference regarding Guerrero’s status. “I worry about any potential call-up that isn’t actively playing for a club; Paolo’s situation is particularly evident,” Fossati stated. He mentioned that he had spoken to Guerrero and heard his side of the story, but added, “I’m not the one to share it publicly.”
After Fossati revealed that he had conversed with Peru’s all-time leading scorer, reporters were eager to learn more details. However, Fossati declined to delve further into the matter despite their persistent inquiries.
“As the national team coach, and since Paolo is a potential call-up, I am worried,” he acknowledged. “But it’s not appropriate for me to express my opinion on a conflict between a player and a club. My role is to suggest and advise them.”
He further emphasized his position by saying, “Interjecting myself into a conflict between a club and a player seems audacious. I also believe that anyone who comments on the issue without hearing both sides is making a serious mistake. However, everyone is entitled to their own opinions.”
This underscores the delicate balance Fossati seeks to maintain while navigating the complexities of player management and public discourse.
