For Deportes Iquique, 2024 will be a fundamental year. The northern team achieved the long-awaited promotion to the First Division, by dramatically winning the definition of the Promotion League against Santiago Wanderers. In this way, the Dragons return to the big leagues, after three seasons in the B.
The light blues return thanks to the technical leadership of Miguel Ramírez and are already beginning to have news regarding their squad for next season.
Firstly, and in news that was greatly celebrated in the north, everything indicates that forward Edson Puch, one of the club’s emblems, will continue in the institution, because for Cheíto his experience, both in Chilean football and abroad and the National Team is essential for the team.
But this Friday, the Iquiqueños close to an important reinforcement for next year. There is already complete verbal agreement with the Argentine Daniel Sappa, a 28-year-old goalkeeper who in 2022 had a more than acceptable time at Palestino.
The goalkeeper was free at Estudiantes de La Plata and will join the sky blue store in a one-year relationship.
Daniel Sappa’s picturesque passage through Chile
Daniel Sappa was a goalkeeper who left a mark during his time in Chile, which can be classified as more than acceptable. He spent the entire 2022 season in Palestino and the team did not do badly at all. Those from La Cisterna finished in fourth place in the standings and Sappa received 35 goals in the 29 games he played (2 and one goal against in the Chile Cup, in addition).
But beyond his good soccer performance, the goalkeeper made the news in March of last year, as a furious fan of Estudiantes de La Plata, precisely the team from which he arrives in Iquique. Pincharrata faced Everton de Viña del Mar, in the first leg of the third round of the Copa Libertadores and Sappa was there, in the middle of the visiting bar, cheering on the club he loves.
Deportes Iquique will be the sixth team in Daniel Sappa’s career, since in addition to Estudiantes and Palestino, he defended Arsenal, Patronato and Belgrano, in his native country.
