The trans-Andean attacker had a contract until 2025, but in an unplanned play he decided to go to Brazilian football.
Popular had a lousy start to the year 2023, following learning of the departure of its top scorer last season. with the amount of 24 goals in all contested competitions, Juan Martin Lucero is on the Chilean soccer news agenda for accept a millionaire offer from Brazil, when he had already renewed his bond with the albos.
This decision is linked to a possible lawsuit once morest Fortaleza (team that will acquire the pass of the Argentine) and for the ex forward of Velez Sarsfield. However, it seems that the only one who does support this movement is the former goalkeeper of Colo-Colo, Paulo Garcés.
in dialogue with BolaVipthe current goalkeeper of Valdivia Sports Club established in the debate the action of always judging the players. El Halcón gave as an example some leaders who also seek to break contracts and, even, they do it under threat in order to fulfill its mission.
“You don’t feed your family with love”
“Why do we always judge players when they make these kinds of decisions? And why don’t we judge the people who are in charge of the clubs? Sometimes, there are leaders who seek to break contracts, even with threats, in order not to comply with them. Here the one who is always judged is the player. One has economic and family claims. I understand the fans but let’s see it from the sidewalk in front“, he pointed.
Also, he wanted to make it clear that in the career of a soccer player you do not live with the love of the fans. “You don’t play for love. You don’t feed your family with love. We should judge those who are in charge, who make you give up contracts, who force you to do wrong things. There are times when you have to make a decision and he did.“.
Lastly, he compared this event with what was experienced by the martin rodriguez in his last cycle with the Eternal Champion.
“Martín Rodríguez broke it in Colo-Colo, he had a clause and he left. Martín was judged, but not the club. The one who was being attacked was him. Lucero broke it at the club and there the decision of each one is equal and weighs. It happened to me, they forced me to terminate my contract for three years and you don’t see the background that is happening“, finished.
