Wilmer Santiago Acasiete Ariadela (born 22 November 1977) is a Peruvianfootballmanager and former player who played as acentral defender. He is the current manager ofJuan Pablo II College.
He also holds aSpanish passport due to the many years he spent in the country, mainly withAlmería,[1] with whom he appeared in fourLa Liga seasons.
Acasiete representedPeru in threeCopa América tournaments.
Born inCallao, Acasiete started playing professionally withDeportivo Wanka, moving in the following year toUniversitario de Deportes. After another sole season he joinedCienciano del Cuzco, helping the former country's capital side to the2003 South American Cup and the2004 South American Supercup.
For2004–05, Acasiete signed withUD Almería in the Spanishsecond division. He was an important defensive element in theAndalusians first-ever promotion toLa Liga in2007, being used intermittently in the subsequent seasons however: inhis first top level campaign in Spain he appeared in only 20 games, but still managed to award his team six points withlast-minute home strikes againstSevilla FC[2] andVillarreal CF (both 1–0).[3]
Following the end of2011–12, spent again in the second level, 34-year-old Acasiete opted out of his contract with Almería and returned to his former club Cienciano.
Acasiete gained more than 40caps for thePeru national team, the first on 18 February 2004 at almost 27,[4] and participated at the2004 and2007 Copa América.
On 7 December 2007, he was found guilty of having introduced women and alcohol into the national squad's hotel two days before Peru's away drubbing at the hands ofEcuador (5–1), and was thus suspended 18 months (1.5 years) from international competition (national sides only).[5] On 3 July of the following year, after an investigation and a review of the facts, the suspension was changed to three months (from the date of appeal in April) with aUS$10,000 fine.
