Atlético Nacional is preparing in the best way for the long-awaited return to competition. Under the command of Juan Carlos Osorio, the purslane team is at full throttle to retake the league that is yet to be defined and the South American Cup.
Precisely, the 59-year-old experienced coach held a dialogue with ESPN, and there he expressed his dissatisfaction with the little value that is given to the Colombian soccer player, since he considers that the foreign player is valued more:
“At Nacional we finished distributing the bicycles to our team on March 28, but the difference is that they have 30 bicycles, we have 10. But the idea, as such, of how our players trained, is at the level of anyone. What happens is that in our country we highly value what comes from people with blue eyes and people of other nationalities, but not what comes from here in Colombia, “he said.
Likewise, Osorio highlighted the work of his managers, to the point of comparing one of his midfielders with the French Paul Pogba: “Here we have Baldomero Perlaza who is very close to being the Colombian Pogba, but here we do not value him because he does not speak French and because that is how we are here”, he pointed.
Finally, the former coach of the Mexican team was asked about the situation that Lionel Messi is experiencing in Barcelona, and by way of reflection, the strategist played down the issue, because for him, the situation the trainers are going through is more important Colombians who have not been able to work due to the pandemic generated by the new coronavirus:
“I want to pause here and take a deep breath, tell everyone that this situation is irrelevant to me, I am concerned at this moment about what is happening with our trainers, coaches of neighborhood teams, that due to the pandemic they cannot work and do not have to bring a market to the houseThat does worry me, Messi’s decision doesn’t matter to me “
“I am concerned about ours, my country, my people, at this moment there are thousands of child and youth coaches sucking a cable because they cannot work, that does concern me and it occupies me, they know what I try to do to collaborate with them. Messi is another issue, it is pure showmanship, that he does what he wants and that he go where he wants to play “, ended.
