There is a verbal agreement between Alianza Lima, Paok of Greece, and the footballer for the realization of the transfer; it is a link for three seasons. <b>It is a management directly from Franco Navarro, who led and negotiated this signing.<\/b> It is planned that no later than next week he will already be training with the Victorian team,\u201d said Kevin Pacheco in the program <i>&#8216;Let&#8217;s go to VAR&#8217;.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"visual__image\">\n    <picture><source  media=\"(min-width: 1000px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 768px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 580px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 350px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 80px)\"\/><\/picture><figcaption class=\"article-figcaption-img\">Pe\u00f1a&#8217;s pass to Alianza Lima seems to take shape, although the recent controversy could condition their signing if the sponsor lifts objections. (Andina)<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">After the arrival of <b>Sergio Pe\u00f1a<\/b> in Matute, many are questioning what position <b>N\u00e9stor Gorosito<\/b> will assign him. The technician usually employs a 4-3-3 game system and has already determined the role that Pe\u00f1a will occupy within his scheme: it will be as an interior player.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">It was reported that the midfielder will take the place of <b>Pablo Lavandeira<\/b>, who sustained a severe injury and will likely reappear only next year. He has been recovering from a third-degree sprain of the external collateral ligament and the full tendon of the femoral bicep in his left knee.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">The 30-year-old Pe\u00f1a will compete for the position with <b>Fernando Gaibor<\/b> and <b>Pablo Ceppelini<\/b>. The latter has faced criticism recently for his underwhelming performance in several matches, which has led to his loss of the starting title.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">Currently, the midfield of the <i>&#8216;Blue and White&#8217;<\/i> comprises <b>Gaibor, Ceppelini, Erick Noriega, Piero Cari, Jes\u00fas Castillo, and Jean Pierre Archimbaud.<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">The debate surrounding Pe\u00f1a\u2019s potential playing position has already surfaced among fans, with many eager to see him alongside the Ecuadorian Gaibor and the &#8216;Samurai&#8217; Noriega. Others believe he might share a role with <b>Piero Cari<\/b>, as the youth is employed by the head coach as a hook while Sergio would serve as an interior player.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"visual__image\">\n    <picture><source  media=\"(min-width: 1000px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 768px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 580px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 350px)\"\/><source  media=\"(min-width: 80px)\"\/><img alt=\"In the midst of the stir, Paolo\" class=\"global-image\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"low\" height=\"1080\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1751472162_478_Sergio-Pena-is-a-new-addition-to-Alianza-Lima-What.jpg\" width=\"1920\"\/>\n    <\/picture><figcaption class=\"article-figcaption-img\">In the midst of the stir, Paolo Guerrero gave his blessing.
