“I don’t know why I disappeared these days”

Ricardo Centurion stars in another controversial episode in his career. It all arose when the president of Velez, Fabián Berlanga, revealed that they had not heard from the footballer for ten days and that they did not know where he was. That raised concern. Although there was a close friend who spoke publicly this Thursday and gave some peace of mind about the health of the former Boca, Racing and San Lorenzo. Is about Eduardo Rossettoformer representative of the player.

“I spoke with Centurión, he is better than I thought. At times, he is lucid. I love him very much and I cannot be pejorative, nor should this be taken as a qualification that if one sees it from another side. The clarity is surprising, he tells truths like few people in society, capable of assuming their own faults,” said Rossetto.

And he told what Ricardo said to him: “Tordi, I’m going to tell you the truth, I didn’t behave the way you behaved. But it’s not that I made too many messes. Then, what do you want me to tell you, Vélez is right. The president and the coach behaved impeccably. It’s not that I demand another chance, because they can say that I wasted it. But today I want to go back and I’m fine.”

“Centurión literally told me ‘I don’t know why I disappeared these days. There are times when my bearings fly a little. See what you can do for me,'” said Rossetto. And he assured that he will talk with the Fortín leadership.

Furthermore, Rossetto, in dialogue with Team F (ESPN), said: “To demand that he play like in the Racing Primera, that with normal development, he could be like Neymar, is not possible. I hope he is happy, at 31 years old. With the wear and tear he has had, with a physique privileged. If you train for 20 days, you are like the best.

“He is not above the situation, he had a difficult life, a complicated childhood. The father died in an explosion accident, when Centurión was five years old, the mother had to work to support a humble home. The upbringing was left to the grandmother. He is a street dog, he has that devilish trick built into him,” Rossetto added.

“He is not excessively ambitious for money. If he played for Fénix to be promoted to the Metropolitan B and he achieved it, he would be as happy as when he scored the goal against River with the Boca shirt, he carries the passion for the ball. It is not a person who if he has little money is going to be distressed,” Rossetto added.

Gustavo Quinterosafter beating Arsenal for the Argentine Cup, said that he was hurt by Ricky’s situation, since he had spoken a lot with him to try to get him back and had not been successful.

“I am very sad because I spoke a lot with Ricardo. We tried everything, people from the club, teammates, players, we, the coaching staff, approached to try to help him as much as we could so that he can play football again, be good,” he said.

And he also added: “Unfortunately we couldn’t, he couldn’t. Hopefully we can help him so he can make a recovery, first as a person and then continue playing football.”
