Alan Velasco has revealed that he was set to return to Independiente in 2023

The 21-year-old footballer, who recently tore a ligament, recounted everything behind the scenes of this comeback that was about to become a reality, although the American club put the final hurdle in place.

“Independiente called me after the game and I told them I would call them later. I told my representative to consider the possibility of coming back. It was a loan until the end of the year, I didn’t accept it as if I was going to come to his rescue but I wanted to help and be of assistance after everything Independiente had done for me. There was no problem with the numbers because it was resolved quickly, but they went to Dallas to talk and They were told there was no chance.. My representative told me that the club was asking him to do so But is the club that bad?. “He told him everything that happened, and that he loved the club very much, but in the end it didn’t happen.”

Furthermore, he recalled his departure and expressed his regret at not being able to stay a little longer: “Today there are many clubs that come looking for young people and at that time the organization needed money. I was hoping to win a title with Independiente, But I didn’t have much choice to stay.”

Did Boca call him?: “Independiente knows that I respect the club and would be the first to look forward to returning to it. This is football and work, and it is possible that I will go to another team.” They contacted my representative from Boca but did not contact me directly“.
