The Argentine Claudio Husaínwho wore the Napoli shirt in his career between 2000 and 2003, gave an interview to Mobile Sport in which he defended the Uruguay coach Marcelo Bielsa after Luis Suarez’s words: “It’s impossible for him to negotiate bad people. Chileans can testify to the same thing I’m saying. He’s always been very reserved with footballers, but his style is more distant and professional.”
In fact, a month after his farewell to football, El Pistolero declared to DSports Uruguay: “There were situations that happened in the Copa América that hurt me and that I didn’t talk about for the good of the group. This will continue to happen. The players they will reach a limit and explode. During the Copa América some players told me: ‘Luis, I will play the Copa América and then I will not play again’. This means that we are in a difficult situation. Then we overcome everything and come back because we love our country. Everyone we love representing our country.”
Suárez explained that before, the players and staff loved spending time together. But with Bielsa the atmosphere is no longer the same. “All that was lost during the training camps. When I was last called, some of us were playing cards and Bielsa’s staff were walking around us and looking at us. I don’t know. There were a lot of things that attracted my attention.” finally he confided that his relationship with El Loco was purely professional and that he had only one conversation with the 69-year-old coach.
