Cienciano Rules Out Signing Miguel Trauco Over Reported $60,000 Wage Demand

Club leaders say paying such a fee would break the squad’s salary balance in Peru’s market.

Overview

  • Director Guido Gallegos said Cienciano held talks with Trauco’s camp but ended them because the requested salary was “astronomical,” reported at about $60,000.
  • The club concluded that meeting that figure would disrupt its internal pay structure and exceed what teams typically spend in Liga 1.
  • Gallegos characterized speculation about a deal as unfounded and stressed there was nothing concrete with the 33-year-old left back.
  • Trauco remains a free agent after rescinding his Alianza Lima contract and has not reached an agreement with another team.
  • Sport Boys has been linked as a possible destination, while Liga 1 rules allowing unattached signings until March 15 narrow his immediate registration options.
