Dynamo defender Alexander Kutitsky spoke about his attitude to the departure of Guillermo Varela from the Moscow club.
On Sunday, July 31, Flamengo announced the loan of Varela from Dynamo until June 2023. At the same time, Muscovites stated that they did not conclude any agreements with the Brazilian club.
– Your opinion on the act of Guillermo Varela, who escaped from the base and did not even say goodbye to you, is interesting.
– No, why, the next day after the game with Torpedo, Varela arrived at the base and said goodbye to everyone, – Metaratings quotes Kutitsky.
Why is there so much noise around this story?
– Probably because he did not appear in the team on the day of the game with Torpedo, without warning anyone.
– In Spartak, Quincy Promes personally asked the legionnaires not to leave the team. Was there a similar conversation in Dynamo?
“I haven’t heard anything of the sort.
— But did the Russian football players try to somehow support the foreigners, to convince them that there is nothing to be afraid of in Russia?
“Of course, we told them that everything would be all right with them here, that their families in Russia were completely safe, that they were treated kindly. But everyone decides for himself. We treat with understanding those who leave, we wish good luck.
Earlier, Varela suspended the contract with the Moscow club, taking advantage of the FIFA rule. In July, Dynamo reported that the player had unilaterally notified the club of the suspension of the contract.
Dynamo, having scored 5 points, is on the 5th line in the WORLD standings of the Russian Premier League (RPL).
