Football player Varela apologized for the words about hiding his COVID in Dynamo

Football player Guillermo Varela apologized for saying that Dynamo hid information about his infection with coronavirus. As stated in a statement posted on the club's website, his earlier published words were uttered in a private conversation, and then distorted by the media.

Varela announced the concealment of Dynamo information about his infection with COVID Football Earlier on Thursday, the ESPN portal published an interview with Varela, where the Uruguayan defender announced the possible fact that the club concealed his infection with the coronavirus, because of which he was eventually unable to arrive at the location of the Uruguayan national team .

“I want to apologize to everyone for the confusion. I didn't give interviews. My words in a private conversation have been misinterpreted. To be honest, I myself was at a loss when I saw the material published in the media in the morning, and even with such supposedly my words, ”Dynamo quotes Varela as saying.

According to the footballer, all the tests he passed at Dynamo showed a negative result for COVID-19, and only an antibody test showed that he could have had the disease without symptoms.

The RPL reacted to Varela's statement about Dynamo's concealment of his COVID Football “I really haven't been vaccinated. What he said in the team. The club takes anti-covid measures very seriously. I regularly passed and take tests, there have never been positive ones. Only an antibody test showed that I had them, and I may have been asymptomatic at some point. But I still don’t know when it was,” Varela said.

Earlier on Thursday, the press service of the Russian Premier League (RPL) reported that Varela did not receive a QR code to get into the “clean zone” for the match of the 14th round against Krasnodar on November 6, which the Uruguayan footballer eventually missed. Varela stated that he was injured during that period.

“In November, I missed a few training days due to an injury I received in training. And with trips to South America, I had problems precisely because of the lack of a vaccination certificate. I'm going to get vaccinated, ”summed up the footballer.

Varela has been with Dynamo since October 2020 and has since made 35 appearances for the Blue and Whites, making two assists.
