São Paulo notify Arboleda, set deadline after he goes missing | OneFootball

After statements from football director Rui Costa speaking out against Arboleda’s behavior this Monday, São Paulo informed this afternoon that it sent a notice to the Ecuadorian center-back, giving the player 24 hours to explain his disappearance from the club’s activities and regularize his professional situation.

Arboleda case

Arboleda was supposed to report at 12 p.m. (Brasília time) last Saturday at SuperCT for São Paulo’s pre-match camp ahead of facing Cruzeiro, but he did not show up and was removed from the squad list for the Brazilian Championship match.

Internally, São Paulo heard that Arboleda had traveled to Ecuador in the early hours of the morning, in a hurry. However, the club had no official confirmation of the player’s whereabouts, as it tried to contact him and received no response.

São Paulo also sought information from Arboleda’s representatives and family members. However, they also got no response when trying to contact the player, who has now received an “ultimatum” to provide an explanation to the club.
