National Athletic? Racing? Much is said about the future of Edwin Cardona. So far there is no official statement and the rumors continue. Of course, there is something certain and it is that he will not return to Xolos de Tijuana, the club that owns the player, and that he will not continue in Boca Juniors.
While the midfielder’s situation is being defined, this Saturday, in an interview with ‘TyC Sports’, Jorge ‘El Patron’ Bermúdez, a member of the ‘Xeneize’ Soccer Council, announced the reasons why the Argentine team did not make use of of the option of purchase by the footballer.
As the medium itself titled it, these were “the crude phrases that explain their motive” and that led the 29-year-old to say ‘goodbye’ to Boca Juniors, after several seasons. Let’s remember that he arrived on July 18, 2017, left on December 24, 2019 and returned on August 21, 2020.
“Boca Juniors brought Edwin Cardona when he was not playing and did not even participate in the training of the Tijuana first division; the purchase option was signed because the club trusted him and the illusion and soccer possibility that we knew the player could have was deposited. deliver, “he began in his statements.
But it was not the only thing he said. “Unfortunately, due to the circumstances that we have all followed during these almost 18 months, it did not end, as for example, the continuity of the player was not what was expected and, in addition, he did not manage to take hold,” he said in his speech.
Thus, in Boca Juniors they had everything clear and knew what they would do with Edwin Cardona, once the loan ended and the transfer market opened. Now, he will have to wait for his new destination, which seems to be Racing de Avellaneda, according to reports from Argentina.
