The Tatengue world is going through hours of deep emotion. Through a heartfelt message, Unión formally bid farewell to Claudio Corvalán, one of its greatest figures of recent years, a footballer who wore the captain’s armband with the commitment and support that characterized him both in the good times and in the institution’s most difficult periods.

The captain’s legacy in numbers and affection

The mark the player leaves on the club was reflected in the institution’s heartfelt words, which emphasized 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:

  1. 221 official matches wearing the red and white colors.
  2. He established himself as the main reference and commanding voice on and off the pitch.
  3. He showed unwavering commitment through the good times and the bad.

“This will always be your home”

Although the transfer market or football’s twists of fate may force the paths of the player and Unión to part ahead of next semester, the emotional bond was sealed forever. “You made Unión your home, and although our paths may separate, this will always be your home”, concludes the emotional tribute to a captain who has already earned his place in Tatengue’s great history.
