💣Will he stay in the LPF? Argentinos Juniors move for Enzo Pérez | OneFootball

Argentinos Juniors seeks to make a big surprise in the transfer market by trying to sign Enzo Pérez, the experienced midfielder who has just parted ways with River Plate. According to TyC Sports, positive talks have already begun between the management of La Paternal and the representatives of the Millonario idol.

Pérez's arrival is a wish of coach Nicolás Diez, who already knows the player from Mendoza from his time in Jorge Sampaoli's coaching staff with the Argentine National Team during the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

The Bicho takes advantage of the situation

Enzo Pérez, who will turn 40 in February, is evaluating where to continue his career after a bittersweet end of the cycle at River, where he lost playing time in the second half of the year. Despite the "lukewarm" institutional farewell on social media, the player remains active and is looking for a club that guarantees him a prominent role.

Although a return to his original club, Deportivo Maipú (Primera Nacional), is always on the horizon, the player's dominant idea is to stay in Buenos Aires, which favors the proposal from Argentinos Juniors.

Are there chances he might go to the United States?

Argentinos Juniors, which will play the Copa Libertadores playoff, offers the possibility of being a key player in local football. However, it is not the only option for the midfielder. Pérez also has a significant offer from the United States to wear the Atlanta United jersey, a team managed by his compatriot Gerardo Martino.

The final decision of Enzo Pérez will be made in the coming days, seeking a destination where he can prove that, despite his age, he remains an elite player.
