According to League 1 2023 programming, Alliance of Lima He has to make his debut against Sporting Cristal this Sunday, February 5 at 10:00 a.m. at the Alberto Gallardo Stadium. However, the blue and white team maintain their position of not playing that day until the issue of television rights is settled with the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF). This decision was confirmed by Solomon Lernera member of the Blue and White Fund, during an interview for RPP.
“Our position today as Alianza Lima is not to play on Sunday. We have meetings with all parties and stakeholders, we will talk about it in the next few hours,” said the leader.
What is Alianza Lima asking of the FPF to play in League 1?
Solomon Lerner also stated that e.g Alliance of Lima can play in League 1 on that date, FPF GolPerú must allow the duels of the teams with which it has renewed its contract to be broadcast.
“If the FPF letter states that the Peruvian football consortium (company that GolPerú is part of) can broadcast and not just the other chain, that would be settled and we would all play on the first date,” he said.
“The Alianza Lima team thinks that they will play on Sunday because we believe that this can be solved. We know that Guillermo Salas asked the team to concentrate because we have to take all the precautions of the case. We want the FPF to remove the precautionary measure and allow competition,” he added.
