Finding the Perfect Right Back for the Peruvian National Team: Advíncula, Corzo, Lora, Aguilar, and Other Options

2024-02-15 20:52:38

Now, it is evident that the undisputed starter is Luis Advíncula, who has stood out with his ownership in Boca Juniors, becoming one of the most important players currently on the Argentine team. Even in the previous campaign he was the scorer for the Xeneize team in the Copa Libertadores and had the skill to also perform as a winger. However, since the beginning of Ricardo Gareca’s cycle, it has not been possible to find a natural substitute with the same characteristics, either in defense or attack. This situation raises an important question: who are the other players who give Fossati enough security not to test Oliver Sonne?

Aldo Corzo

Every time Peru might not count on Luis Advíncula, both Gareca and Reynoso chose to place Aldo Corzo. It is undeniable that in terms of dedication and sacrifice, the Universitario player rarely disappointed; That is to say, we won in marking and aerial play, but it was difficult for us when advancing lines. Of course, this is due to the characteristics of him. If we analyze his performances in the 2026 Qualifiers, it stands out that Luis Advíncula stood out for his offensive approach as a right back.

Now, although ‘Bolt’ failed to score, he showed a clear willingness to shoot from outside the area (in Argentina he already showed that with his left foot he also tries from afar), with an average of 1.0 shots per game, while Corzo did not attempt any shot during the elimination matches. In terms of successful dribbles, Advíncula, a Boca Juniors player, achieved 100% effectiveness, in contrast to Corzo, who did not perform any during the tournament.

Jhilmar Lora

If we are looking for an option with experience in the Peruvian National Team and an offensive inclination without neglecting defense, Jhilmar Lora emerges as the main candidate. The player has accumulated six years in the first division with Sporting Cristal, where he has stood out as one of the best in his position for at least two consecutive seasons (2022 and 2023). Despite his notable performance in League 1 Te Apuesta, he has not yet managed to make the expected leap abroad. Remaining in Peruvian football might limit his opportunities to compete at the same level as Advíncula on the international stage.

During the 2023 League, Lora stood out as one of the best right backs thanks to his solid defense, offensive contribution with three assists and seven great scoring opportunities created, consistency as a starter in 24 of 26 duels, skill in the aerial game with a 58 % of duels won, and a low error rate, despite making one that led to a goal conceded. However, to migrate to a bigger club, he needs to improve his passing accuracy (he has 62%), especially in the opposition third, and his effectiveness in crosses which was 27%.

Kluiverth Aguilar

Kluiverth Aguilar has shown notable progress during his time at Belgian Challenger Pro League side Lommel SK, especially following a period of initial adaptation to European football. Consolidating himself as the starting right back, he more than responded to the trust placed in him. With 19 starts in the 19 games in which he was present for the Belgian promotion, he scored a goal and, in turn, provided an assist, highlighting his contribution in both defense and attack. His stats support his rise as a solid option to compete for a spot on the team.

What might work once morest Kluiverth Aguilar is his lack of minutes with the senior team so far. Despite having completed his career in the youth teams, including the Under 17, Under 20 and Under 23, he has not yet had the opportunity to debut with the main team. Although he has had training experiences with the main squad, he was not called up for any games. It is important to highlight that he was excluded from the last Under 23 Pre-Olympic due to a technical decision by ‘Chemo del Solar’. However, the perspective from La Videna would have changed following his excellent current season, especially since he is the only right back, along with Oliver Sonne, who is in the Old Continent.

Other Options

Jorge Fossati has other interesting options who have been competing in Liga 1 Te Apuesta 2024. For example, Alejandro Ramos, who was one of the most talked regarding names at the end of 2022, when Juan Reynoso took charge of the red and white team. This following standing out in the Copa Sudamericana with Melgar (in that campaign, the ‘León’ reached the semifinals of the international competition: they stumbled once morest Independiente del Valle). He might not be called up for the friendlies because he was playing in that tournament, and then his performance decreased. This season he may seek to achieve his best performance and enter the consideration of the Uruguayan coach.

The U-23 National Team, led by ‘Chemo’ del Solar, left two interesting names for the right wing. First of all, Marco Huamán, who was signed by Alianza Lima this season and debuted in the last classic (he entered in the complementary stage, for Sebastián Rodríguez). The second is Emilio Saba, captain of the youth team in the Pre-Olympic held in Venezuela, and is currently a starter in Carlos a. Mannucci. Both will have the task of showing that they are ready to make the jump to the senior team of the red and white.

On the other hand, we highlight two footballers who maintained remarkable consistency in the last national tournaments. Josué Estrada, from Cienciano, has already been summoned on some occasions by Ricardo Gareca – to participate in a microcycle – and has the firm determination to be considered once more in the future. Likewise, there is Carlos Cabello, who in 2023 positioned himself among the five right backs with the best numbers and has been the undisputed starter at the César Vallejo University for two years.
