The forward and captain of the Tucumán team announced his departure at the end of the season after a fight with the fans, who insulted everyone during the defeat against San Lorenzo, and with the directors, whom they accuse of a debt.
Atlético Tucumán is not going through its best moments at this end of the season. The club's failure to pay led the players to not train as a protest, and this was met with insults from the fans during the 2-1 defeat against San Lorenzo.
The prelude was heated: they took to the field, and the first thing thrown at them were bills, as a way for the fans to show their disagreement, shouting “mercenaries.”
As soon as Alexis Cuello's equalizer came on Monday night, the classic chant erupted: “Players…” and so they went into halftime, with their captain Leandro Díaz wanting to fight with the spectators.
After the match, the player himself surprised everyone by announcing that he will not continue after the match with Lanús at the end of the year, despite wanting to “retire” at the club.
“We are self-critical, we haven't been able to win, but we're not last either. We understand the people, although we played with everything against us today. Let the directors tell the truth, it's not about the money, we don't need money. We didn’t train because we've been suffering from many things,” detailed the forward.
“I came to the club because they asked me to come help with the relegation, I didn't ask for anything. Of course, I have a salary... I never set conditions. Let the directors show up, who later fight to go see Boca and River in Buenos Aires,” he pointed out.
Atlético Tucumán in the general table has 31 points, practically saved from relegation, and in the regular phase of the Torneo Clausura, it occupies the eighth place -the last playoff spot- in zone B.
