Universitario Rejects New Fossati Deal, Insists Existing Contract Runs Through 2026

Club leaders schedule a fresh meeting with administrator Franco Velazco to settle the issue after limiting concessions to performance bonuses.

Overview

  • Club sources, via L1 Radio and Peru21, say there will be no new contract for Jorge Fossati and that he is expected to honor his current agreement to December 2026.
  • The institution cites a policy against “economic craziness,” offering only improved objective-based bonuses and budget-bound sporting autonomy instead of higher base pay.
  • RPP reports the gap remains wide as Fossati seeks a new document with revised terms, with a third meeting set for Thursday involving Velazco and agent Pablo Betancourt.
  • Talks have turned tense and a preliminary understanding collapsed, according to L1 Radio reporting summarized by Libero.
  • Coverage links the standoff to transfer planning, with reports that Fossati requested forward Abel Hernández and previously asked for Aldair Fuentes.
