Through his social media, José Barreto said goodbye to Colón after terminating his contract, which was set to last until December 31 of this year.
Alongside Joel Soñora, the management of Colón managed to terminate the contract of José Barreto, which was also set to last until December 31. They are looking to do the same with other players whose contracts end on the same date and, despite the difficulties, are currently negotiating.
Barreto's termination took place on Wednesday afternoon, and a day later he bid farewell to Colón through his social media with the following statement:
«It's time for me to say goodbye, and I don't want to do so without first thanking everyone who was part of this journey: teammates, coaching staff, management, fans, and club workers. I know this year wasn't what we expected, both personally and collectively. I take my share of responsibility and regret not having lived up to the expectations. Sometimes football doesn't yield the results one desires, but that doesn't take away from the effort, commitment, and affection I always gave for this jersey. I leave with lessons learned, friendships, and the awareness of having tried everything. I appreciate the opportunity given to me and wish you all the best in what lies ahead. This club deserves to be at the top, and I'm sure it will achieve that».
