The Tatengue world is going through hours of deep emotion. Through a heartfelt message, Unión formally bid farewell to Claudio Corvalán, one of its biggest figures of recent times, a footballer who wore the captain’s armband with the commitment and support that characterized him both in the good moments and in the institution’s most difficult stages.
The mark the footballer leaves on the club was reflected in the institution’s heartfelt words, which highlighted his sense of belonging: “Unión means Unión, and you are part of everything we are”.
Throughout his time at the club, the historic leader reached an impressive milestone:
Although the transfer market or football’s twists of fate may force the player’s and Unión’s paths to part ways heading into the next semester, the emotional bond was sealed forever. “You made Unión your home, and even though our paths may separate, this will always be your home”, concludes the emotional tribute to a captain who has already carved out his place in Tatengue’s great history.
