This Tuesday (20), midfielder Giorgian de Arrascaeta's injury to his thigh adductor muscle was confirmed, which will leave him off the field for at least two weeks. The situation generated criticism from journalist Julio Miguel Neto, who questioned the Uruguayan player's physical condition. In response, Arrascaeta used his Instagram account to express his dissatisfaction with the comments.

Visibly uncomfortable, the number 14 of Flamengoleft a direct comment on the journalist's publication. "I'm going to call you to adjust the numbers during the renewal, it's already wrong since you're talking about the salary. If you play 75 games a year, it would be a Guinness Record. I'm far from being an ace, I see that you're the ace," wrote Arrascaeta , demonstrating his discontent.




REFLECTION ON THE INJURY

In addition to responding to criticism, Arrascaeta also used his social networks to share a reflection with your followers. The attacking midfielder reaffirmed his commitment to working hard to return as quickly as possible and highlighted the emotional impact caused by injuries.


"Injuries are unpredictable, unexpected, and the moment they happen they affect our feelings. When you do your job with love and determination, the only thing you can do when these things happen is accept them. Work to get back as soon as possible," wrote the Uruguayan.
