Overview

• RPP reports a verbal agreement to extend Néstor Gorosito now requires Alianza Lima to finish at least third this season, with other factors to be reviewed if that target is missed.
• Alianza is sixth in the Torneo Clausura, 12 points behind leader Universitario, after a recent loss to Alianza Universidad deepened the slump.
• To keep faint title hopes alive, the team must win all five remaining fixtures, including away trips to high-altitude Los Chankas and Sport Huancayo, and rely on rivals dropping points.
• Sporting director Franco Navarro emphasized the need for continuity and said end-of-year evaluations will guide decisions on the project.
• Libero, citing TV commentator Silvio Valencia, reports Guillermo Enrique and Pablo Ceppelini are unlikely to continue in 2026, while Paolo Guerrero and Hernán Barcos are expected to remain.
