Cayetano: Cayetano spoke about his new opportunity with Universitario “I didn’t play the games I expected (in my teams abroad). I have to arrive at Universitario at the right moment. I will try to do my best to be at the height of this institution.”…”When I was in Cusco, I always wanted to go back. Also when I came with Cerro Largo in the presentation of the “U”, I was impressed. Today I get to be part of this and I am enjoying it.”

Noche Crema: Jean Ferrari spoke about Noche Crema, relating to who Universitario will face “Due to scheduling, its difficult for the Noche Crema to have an Uruguayan or Argentine opponent. The most propable is that the opponent is from Colombia.”

‘Chiquitin’ nationalization: Both Perez and Ferrari explained that the Alberto ‘Chiquitin’ Quintero nationalization is still ongoing and will be completed anytime soon.
