Club career

Born in Lima, Goicochea started his career with Esther Grande, staying until the club folded in 2018, before joining Alianza Lima. [2] His debut for Alianza was reportedly delayed due to interest from Brazilian clubs Grêmio and Botafogo. [3] [4] He began training with the Alianza first team in October 2022, and made his debut just a week later. [5] [6] [7]

International career

Goicochea has represented Peru at under-20 level. [1] On his eighteenth birthday, while representing Peru in a friendly against Bolivia, he and teammate Kenji Cabrera, as well as two Bolivian players, were sent off following a brawl. [8] He was left with a black eye following a punch from a Bolivian player during the brawl. [9]

Style of play

Known for his physical size, speed of positioning and goal-scoring ability, Goicochea has been labelled as the "new Paolo Guerrero" by press in Peru. [3] He lists Claudio Pizarro, Gabriel Jesus and Jefferson Farfán as players he looks up to and styles his game on. [2] [10]
