JOSÉ FAJARDO
Attacker · Universidad Catolica · Liga Pro
“A late-career poacher who still smells the box instantly.”
GoalPost verdict
GoalPost score (GPS)
GoalPost read
J. Fajardo remains a veteran striker with usable value, but the market trims him for league level and an uncertain starting role. His recent highs at Universidad Catolica and his sustained spell at Cusco show he still carries real attacking weight.

Analysis overview
Fajardo works as an inside forward with veteran patience, drifting into the half-spaces and arriving where defenders lose their shape. He is not there to dazzle in volume; his value is in sharp movement, quick separation, and a ruthless first thought when the chance opens up. The goal threat is clinical and direct, with his game built around timing runs and finishing cleanly.
