The winners of the U – The team of 2023 – reinforcements and rumours
With the arrival of Juan Pablo Gómez at right-back and Mauricio Pellegrino as head coach, the reconfiguration of a secular cast in need of a swift return to glory began. In the season there is no international participation and the dream of a new star in the league and in the national cup does not come from the vast world of the Romantic Traveler.

The goals of the first game were scored by Cristian Palacios (with a header) and Franco Lobos (with a cross shot into the area after they put everything together), while in the background game Leandro Fernández (a poker), Enzo Fernández scored. (by doubles), Jeisson Vargas, Cristian Pardo, Daniel Navarrete and Nery Domínguez, in addition to the important novelty of Fernández’s premiere together with Gómez, Zaldivia and Mateos.
According to Pellegrino, these games “serve to record the things that have been worked on during the week and to get the best football form. These two weeks were adaptive on all levels, conceptual and physical.. There are clashes, the players get to know us, but we are happy with the talent of the boys.”
The second friendly match resulted in a loss and a draw at CDA, where Audax Italiano won the first of two 70th-minute games by the narrowest margin and took a valuable 2-2 win in the second. The two blue goals, of which other than Leandro Fernández.

Aurinegro won and very well, unopposed, against a visibly weakened U.
