Gago confirms Universidad de Chile will seek three new signings

Fernando Gago, the head coach of Universidad de Chile, has confirmed the club's intention to sign the maximum three players permitted by regulations to strengthen the squad for the second half of the season. This announcement follows the team's recent 3-2 victory against Santiago Wanderers, a win that propelled them back to the top of Group D and provided a positive close to the current cycle before the inter-season break.

"We knew we needed to win to get back to first place and also to finish these rest days well. I think we did well today. Later, in the second half, we faltered a bit, we lacked a bit more circulation," Gago commented on the recent match. The team is scheduled for a week-long break before resuming training on Monday, July 13. Their focus will then shift to the latter part of the season, where improvement is crucial, as they currently sit third in the Campeonato Nacional, 12 points behind leaders Colo Colo.

Addressing the topic of reinforcements, Gago was direct. "Yes, I've already answered that several times, because we are going to try to find the best possible squad for what's coming in the second season." The club has already secured the services of Argentine winger Gonzalo Reyna from Racing on a season-long loan. They are actively seeking to add a striker and a defender before the second round of matches begins, with their first fixture being an away game against Audax Italiano on Sunday, July 26.
