Jhohan Romaña on San Lorenzo future: "I'm staying, feeling good" | OneFootball

San Lorenzo defender Jhohan Romaña assured that he will stay at San Lorenzo despite River's interest in signing him during this transfer window and that he is calm after a confrontation with the Ciclón's management.

“I'm fine now, but you know what I had to go through these days. I never wanted to leave San Lorenzo, and many things were said that affected my family, but now I'm fine,” the defender acknowledged in statements to TyC Sports.

The 27-year-old Colombian had assured before the 1-0 victory against Gimnasia de Mendoza that he would continue at the club, but after the match, he referred to the clash he had with some directors.

“He's a bad guy, he makes a circus on the field,” shot board member Ulises Morales after the defender stated: “They had to speak ill of me to look good with others.” All this exchange occurred amid conflicting reports about a possible departure of the player.

Furthermore, after the Ciclón's first victory in this Apertura, Romaña made his stance clear and that he never pressured to leave: “I had very big offers that would have changed my and my family's life. I stayed and I want to keep fighting.”

Romaña was sought after from Brazil and the United States, in addition to two offers from the Millonario in the recent transfer market, the last one being 2,500,000 dollars for half of the transfer, which was rejected by San Lorenzo.

Finally, the player, who has played 85 matches and scored one goal for the club, concluded: “My family suffered a lot, I have principles. I know what I talked about, I am a man of my word. I know what I said and I stand by it, I am a man of my word, I am here standing firm.”
