"This great institution was a home, a space where I continued to grow not only as a player, but as a person.

The truth is that Aliendro's performance was not what was expected at River . With several injuries, including a fracture of the facial mass with a sinking of the malar after a collision with Alan Varela in the Superclásico on September 11, 2022, which Boca won 1-0 with a goal from Darío Benedetto .
