Apart from being a fan of Barcelona SC, the team of which Carlos Alejandro Alfaro Moreno is the current president, he has always publicly expressed his love for Independiente de Avellaneda, where he also played and was a figurehead.
In an interview with an Argentinian media, the former striker was asked about the current situation of the Red Lodge, which is also going through debts like canaries.
And even, in the past months, the payment for the payment of assets with players who passed through the institution was also promoted.
“I know how commendable it is to raise money to help Independiente, but it seems a shame that a club with so much history has to go to such lengths to make a popular collection in order to progress. If I take that initiative here in Barcelona, I’ll be fired up. These are teams that, according to tradition and the number of partners, are doing well, sponsors desperately want to invest, but today it is not happening and I am very sorry that it is so,” he said.
“As a former player, I love the club and my children are fans of Independiente and Barcelona SC, and we are always aware of what is happening. We hope that we will be able to restore the significance that an institution that has not won the domestic championship for a long time deserves because we are used to a different story,” he added in an interview with the portal.

Likewise, the leader of the Canaries was “hurt” by the situation in which the Red Devils found themselves, or they are also called the “King of Cups”.
“Independiente is such a rich club, with so many titles and achievements, that every time I go to the Libertadores de América, where the fans make me feel their love, it hurts me a lot to see the moment they are going through institutionally and football-wise. We are used to the story of the black palate where if you weren’t a champion or a protagonist, or you didn’t fight for the championship, it was useless,” he concluded. (D)
