Hernán Barcos in Advanced Talks to Join FC Cajamarca With Hybrid Player-Management Role

The newly promoted club has offered a top-tier salary alongside a pathway into sporting management.

Overview

  • Alianza Lima’s sporting director said Barcos was not in the club’s 2026 plans, confirming his exit after five seasons.
  • Barcos traveled to Cajamarca with his family and met club president Omar Zavaleta as negotiations progressed, though no signing has been announced.
  • Head coach Carlos Silvestri called Barcos the right profile for the project and indicated documentation is moving forward.
  • Reports say the proposal includes playing duties plus involvement in sporting planning as a step toward a future executive role.
  • Journalists report he turned down Sport Boys as FC Cajamarca’s offer, including salary comparable to Peru’s top teams, became the frontrunner, with interest from Uruguay’s Albión also noted.
