Paolo Guerrero: Banfield in the hunt for the Peruvian striker
At 40, Paolo Guerrero continues to attract interest from abroad despite a modest goal-scoring record this season. Despite a legal dispute with César Vallejo to terminate his contract, an offer has emerged from Argentina: Banfield.
The Argentine club is keen to strengthen their attack and believe Guerrero’s experience and leadership could be key. Talks are ongoing between the two parties.
Guerrero is eager to take on a new international challenge and seems likely to move to Argentina as soon as possible. The amount of his salary remains undisclosed.
The Peruvian striker has not been considered by Universidad César Vallejo since refusing to play in a match earlier this year. He is currently locked in a standoff with the club, with a potential transfer or contract termination on the horizon.
Guerrero seeks more prominence and believes Banfield could be the answer. He previously expressed regret about his short stint at Racing Club in Argentina, where he failed to make a significant impact.
If he joins Banfield, his primary goal will be to help the club escape relegation.
