Jefferson Farfán will premiere this Sunday, April 28, a new edition of his YouTube program, ‘Enfocados’. For this occasion he will have as a guest Carlos Zambrano, with whom he shared a dressing room in the Peruvian team during several editions of the Copa América and South American Qualifiers.

As is customary, the ‘Foquita’ published a preview of the interview with the ‘León’ on social networks to generate the expectation of its audience. Within the clip, you can find out the topics that will be covered, among them an anecdote with the former coach of the ‘bicolor’, Ricardo Gareca, and the defender’s fight with Darío Benedetto at Boca Juniors.

But the funniest moment, without a doubt, was when the current Alianza Lima player underwent the ‘Give me what I give you’ sequence. Former sportsman Roberto Guizasola, another of the program’s hosts, asked Zambrano about who is better, he or Nicolás Otamendi.

The 34-year-old centre-back’s response was blunt. “Carlos Zambrano,” said the Peruvian. ‘Cucurucho’ was surprised by his response and only managed to applaud, while ’10 on the street’ disapproved and called him “aggrandized” for boasting his superiority over the Argentine world champion.

Moments later, Farfán gave the ‘Kaiser’ a choice between him and Alberto Rodríguez, former starting defender of the national team. The former Boca player did not answer quickly and smiled. “You’re bad… now,” said the former forward. In this way, the preview of ‘Focused’ ended.

Carlos Zambrano and Nicolás Otamendi have faced each other on different occasions at the national team level. The last time they met on a playing field was on October 14, 2021 for the qualifiers on the way to the World Cup. In that match, the ‘albiceleste’ won 1-0 against the ‘bicolor’ with a goal from Lautaro Martínez at the Monumental stadium in Buenos Aires.

Jefferson Farfán’s new facet as a YouTuber has received the approval of fans and his channel already exceeds 100 thousand subscribers. The former Schalke 04 player started this project with Roberto Guizasola, interviewing his compadre Paolo Guerrero, who had recently signed for the César Vallejo University.

Later, through the television set set up in the heart of his house, more national football figures have paraded, such as Yoshimar Yotún, Waldir Sáenz, Luis ‘Cuto’ Guadalupe, Rinaldo Cruzado, Alberto Rodríguez and the last Juan Manuel Vargas . La ‘Foquita’ is preparing for a new installment with Zambrano that promises a lot.

Carlos Zambrano did not start the season well, as he was sidelined by Alianza Lima due to his performance in 2023. He continued training at the club on his own until he spoke with the person in charge of the sports area, Bruno Marioni. The latter, together with coach Alejandro Restrepo, accepted the return of the ‘Kaiser’ to the team.

Since receiving the go-ahead, the centre-back has stood out in ‘intimate’ defence. He has played a total of 7 games, between League 1 and Copa Libertadores. One as a substitute and six from the start. Likewise, he scored a double for his team’s victory against Los Chankas at the National Stadium.

Now, ‘León’ and company are preparing to face another commitment. This time, they will face Melgar in Arequipa on date 13 of the Apertura Tournament. This confrontation will take place on Sunday, April 28 at 5:30 p.m. at the Monumental UNSA stadium.
