“He did not score goals for Barcelona SC or Emelec”, the justification of Luis Alfonso Chango, president for life of Mushuc Runa for not renewing the striker Santiago Giordana

The Argentine striker Santiago Giordana was one of Mushuc Runa’s scorers in the 2022 season, however, in the club of ponchito He did not continue for this year and went to Deportivo Garcilaso of Peru.

Despite being one of the attacking figures of those from Tungurahua and scoring 11 goals, the gaucho’s contract was not renewed and Luis Alfonso Chango, president for life of the club, explained the reasons.

“Giordana has 11 goals and we have analyzed it, they are not goals against Barcelona, ​​Emelec, or the big teams. He had a purchase option of $150,000 and we made the decision to tell him ‘at this moment we don’t have that money,’” said the leader in conversation with Facebook Radio.

”And in addition to this, the economic claims of the businessman (of the player) were that they had to be the same as in Barcelona SC, Emelec or a team from Brazil. They were very high and the salaries for the following years were not established within the purchase option,” added Chango.

The leader also revealed the salary that the Argentine had, which, in principle, was $6,000 and then was reduced to $5,000.

“The first year he came to Mushuc Runa he earned $6,000, the second year he didn’t score a goal and we lowered him to $5,000. He was winning that and paying $10,000 was a lot and then he told me that he wanted to play Copa Libertadores, ”said the manager.

“I told him that the Copa Libertadores is played when you win, not entering another team to play it. That is why he possibly did not want to be in Mushuc Runa anymore and at the moment he is in Deportivo Garcilaso in Peru ”, concluded Chango. (D)
