Overview
- Sporting Cristal officially confirmed on X that Aldair Vásquez will spend the 2026 season on loan at Atlético Grau.
- The 22-year-old attacker returns for a third straight year with Grau after playing 31 matches last season with one goal and one assist, according to local reporting.
- Depor and Libero, citing journalist Gabriel Pacheco, report that Jesús Pretell is not in Autuori’s plans and is likely to leave, though the club has not announced a move.
- Options under discussion for Pretell reportedly include a loan, transfer, or contract termination despite his deal running through the end of 2026.
- Pretell logged significant minutes in 2025—35 Liga 1 matches and over 2,400 minutes—and later lost his starting spot, as Sporting Cristal continues broader roster adjustments before Liga 1 and Libertadores preliminaries.
