Words from Potro Álvarez
Today I want to thank you with all my soul to AAC for returning once once more to your land, to your Rinconada. With a lot of grief and shame I regret that you are leaving, but I am with you, with your beautiful family because at this point you do not deserve that treatment. You are a living legend who deserves respect and consideration! I am very sorry that they did not appreciate your dedication, your desire to give the best to our country, your desire to return and leave your family far away, the sacrifices you made but it was not valued as you deserve. How my wife told me when she saw your career that you almost fell, that she might have gone through a misfortune, giving up your own life and everything so that you receive so much negativity and unfair accusations! Leaving your family for a dream that might have even been a misfortune IS NOT FAIR! A GREAT PROBLEM OF HATE, INJUSTICE AND EVIL IS SCOURING US!!! LOVE AND RESPECT WILL HELP US CHANGE ALL THIS!!! GOD BLESS YOU MY BROTHER AND YOUR HOME WILL ALWAYS BE HERE!!! I HOPEFULLY THIS WILL BE A GOOD MOMENT FOR REFLECTION AND UNDERSTANDING!!! HUG.
