The Argentina coach is preparing his team for the visit to Unión Comercio in the 4th round of La Liga 1.
Carlo Compagnucci, the coach of the Universitario de Deportes, knows that he will still have a long way to go to achieve the goal that all the meringues want: the 27th star. That’s why they have, together with the sports direction chaired by Manuel Barreto renewed the roster with the 13 signings presented throughout preseason. Although the ‘U’ has been reinforced in all of its lines, there is one player who could be crucial in many areas of the field: Juriel Celi.
In a press conference for the Creme Networks, the Argentina coach said he had spoken to the Chalaco and confirmed the area where he feels most comfortable. “I spoke to him and he told me where he feels most comfortable or where he thinks he does best. And I told him what I see of him too. He can play in all three positions behind a striker: left wing, right wing and back end, calmly,” he pointed out.
Compagnucci also shared his point of view with him and attracted media attention by revealing the spot on the pitch where Celi would play.
“I see him as a right center midfielder. Like Guivin, Calcaterra, as we put it Quispe sometime. It can give us variants and for me it’s important that we can use it in different positions,” he concluded.
