Peru full-back on Atletico Mineiro radar, says agent

Xinhua, June 23, 2016 Adjust font size:

Brazilian Serie A club Atletico Mineiro are considering a move to sign Peru international full-back Miguel Trauco, according to the player's agent.

"We have made a proposal to the club and they are analyzing it," agent Jose Chacon told the Superesportes news portal.

Trauco currently plays for Lima-based Universitario in Peru's top flight, whom he joined this year from from Union Comercio

The 23-year-old has been capped seven times for Peru and was the first choice left-back in the team's recent Copa America campaign.

He missed a spot-kick in the team's quarterfinal penalty shootout against Colombia last Friday, which Peru lost. Enditem
