After 36 matches in charge of the first team, Guillermo Salas his relationship with the blue and whites ended (his last game was against Universitario, at the Alejandro Villanueva stadium) and will be Nixon Perea who is on the bench Lima Alliance for the next matches of the Closing Tournament of the Betsson League 1. The Colombian strategist assumed the reserve of the intimate club from the beginning of the 2023 season and has studies in sports, as well as administration and sports psychology.
Perea was a soccer player during the 90’s, he even won the Colombian league champion with Atlético Nacional in 1994 and runner-up in the Copa Libertadores in 1995, with the same club. In his homeland, he also wore the colors of Deportivo Pereira and Independiente de Santa Fe, while in Asia, during his time in Japan, he played for Vegalta Sendai.
If it is about studies, it is necessary to make it known that he has a degree in Physical Education and Sports, in addition, he has postgraduate degrees in psychology and sports administration. His experience with minor divisions was developed to a large extent in the team that saw him champion (Atlético Nacional), where he led hundreds of boys from 2012 to 2021, becoming champions in 2016 and 2018.
This is how it went with the Alianza Lima Reserve
Since his arrival at the beginning of 2023, Perea worked with the reserve of Lima Alliance, with a view to the national championship and the Copa Libertadores Sub-20, which took place in Chile. However, the present of the ‘Potrillos’ is not the best, since they are located in thirteenth place in the Promotion and Reserves Tournament, with nine points (three games won and four lost).
Of course, when the opportunity came to face Universitario de Deportes on the ninth date of the championship, those led by Perea managed to win 2-1, a quite significant victory, especially since the ‘creams’ are in the second box of the table, with 24 points.
In the Copa Libertadores Sub-20 things did not turn out as they wanted for the ‘foals’. The teams they had to face (O’higgins from Chile, Peñarol from Uruguay and Caracas from Venezuela) knew how to prevail over the close ones and by the end of the group stage Perea’s cast only registered one point, after drawing with the Chilean squad.
