After Marcelo Gallardo informed him that he would not be considered at River along with other team legends, Enzo Pérez is looking for a new destination for his career, and a club that had already shown interest has appeared: Nacional de Montevideo.

The Bolso had been interested in Pérez during his previous farewell from the Millonario at the end of 2023 when Martín Demichelis was in charge, although at that time the midfielder decided to return to Estudiantes de La Plata.

With this new farewell from the Millonario, the Uruguayan team, recently crowned champions in their country, is once again showing interest, and the possibility of playing in the Copa Libertadores de América could entice the player from Mendoza.

Just as Nacional has once again shown interest in having Enzo, another team that emerges as a possible destination is Estudiantes de La Plata.

Although there is currently no concrete negotiation between the Pincha and the 39-year-old midfielder, the bond that united both parties over the years makes another return seem feasible.

Pérez left River amid a conflictive relationship with Martín Demichelis and spent just a year at Estudiantes before returning to the Millonario, with Marcelo Gallardo already leading the team. At the Pincha, he won the Copa de la Liga and the Trofeo de Campeones.

Another club also linked sentimentally that had emerged some time ago as a possible alternative is Deportivo Maipú of Mendoza, although it does not seem to be the right time for Enzo and the institution that saw him grow as a footballer to reunite.

In that farewell at the end of 2023, the possibility of Pérez joining Lionel Messi's Inter Miami was mentioned, a situation that does not currently appear on the scene, nor any other offer to join the MLS.

While still coming to terms with his departure from River, Enzo will begin to analyze the various offers he will have to start a new challenge for his career in 2026.
