Overview
- Ex-goalkeeper Diego Penny says Cueva is taking direct calls from Sporting Cristal, Universitario and Sport Boys and is expected to travel to Lima soon to choose a destination.
- Penny cites two factors tilting Cueva toward Universitario: proximity to his children and the club’s pursuit of a fourth straight league title.
- Universitario sporting director Álvaro Barco said he knows Cueva well and will evaluate the possibility with coach Jorge Fossati, stressing that any move would follow a careful decision process.
- Commentator Mr. Peet questioned the wisdom of signing Cueva, arguing his return to form depends on his own fitness and commitment after injury-hit spells.
- Reports note Cueva’s reduced role at Emelec due to injuries, a Transfermarkt valuation near €250,000, and financial strain at the Ecuadorian club that could influence negotiations.
