Enzo Pérez’s spell at the River Plate comes to an end. At 36, the former Benfica player (he was linked to the eagles between 2011 and January 2015, when he left for Valencia) should ‘take advantage’ of Marcelo Gallardo’s departure from the Buenos Aires team, a decision already announced by the coach, so that he too could conclude his parenthesis at the River, which began in 2017.
According to TYC Sportthe central midfielder no longer feels “capable” of being a starter in one of the most powerful teams in Argentina and physical problems due to aging have prevented him from playing as often as he would have liked.
Despite having a contract until 2024, Enzo is willing to withdraw at the end of the year to return to Estudiantes, the club in which he distinguished himself before joining Benfica, and then to end his football career.
