The departure of “Mou” from the Rimense team, which marked the end of one of the longest processes in Peruvian football in recent years, came despite the virtues of the coach as a person, believed to be former footballer Luis La Fuente.
“Mosquera was taken out because he was very disciplined, because he was a correct man. I know him as a professional, as a player and as a student. It strikes me that they are taking him out of an institution where he has given his whole life,” the former defense attorney told Ovation.
La Fuente, a four-time champion of the local tournament with Universitario, only met Mosquera as a one-field rival, and only for a few years, because while “Lucho” ended his career in the mid-1970s, de Mosquera ended his career as a catch just starting.
