Founded in 1901, Club Alianza Lima is undoubtedly one of the most important and popular football clubs in Peru, and in the whole of South America. But even the most historic and successful clubs need to continually innovate, and this is exactly what Los Blanquiazules are doing by becoming the first club in Peru to use SkillCorner data to support their scouting and match analysis functions.
Club Alianza Lima has signed a deal providing the club with access to SkillCorner’s Physical and XY tracking data from Peru Liga 1, along with other regional competitions. This data will be used by the club to support their scouting and recruitment processes, allowing their analysts to easily identify, benchmark and compare players based on a number of physical metrics.
Opposition analysis will also be a major part of how the club puts the SkillCorner data to use, providing insights into the strengths and playing style of opponents in Liga 1 and the Copa Libertadores.
Bruno Marioni, Director of Football at Club Alianza Lima, commented:
“Making the right decisions about which players to recruit is one of the most important challenges for any club, and after trialling it recently I am confident that having access to this data will continue to be extremely beneficial for us. The ability to quickly compare the physical performance of players from different competitions is going to make our scouting and analysis process much more efficient, and we look forward to a productive relationship with SkillCorner.”
Pedro Nogueira, Business Development Manager at SkillCorner, said:
“Our customer base in South America is growing quickly, and we are delighted to sign our first ever agreement with a Peruvian club, especially one as famous and successful as Alianza Lima. I look forward to seeing how our data can help to bring future success to the club.”
