Wayne Rooney praises Yamil Asad for his return to MLS

The Argentinian footballer, with a controversial and irregular time at UC, returns to DC United, where he will be managed by the Manchester United idol, who appreciated his qualities.

Yamil Asad returns to MLS. After passing through Universidad Católica, the Argentine midfielder found himself at DC United, the team he was a member of before moving to UC. There he shares a team with Martín Rodríguez, who will be out for the whole of 2023 due to a serious injury, and is directed by Wayne Rooney. The Manchester United idol has indeed praised the trans-Andean footballer.

“He’s someone I know well. I played with him. I always liked him as a player and as a person. He has a very good character. It gives us another option to play with a bit more depth,” said the former striker.

The man trained at Vélez Sarsfield is back at the club where he lived his best days. In San Carlos de Apoquindo, on the other hand, his pace was marked by irregularity. Early March 2022 He was arrested for crashing while intoxicated and that ended up marking his stay in Chile. As detailed by the Carabinieri on the occasion, Asad recorded 1.26 milligrams of alcohol per milliliter of blood. At that time, Cristian Paulucci decided to remove it from certain quotes.

It was only in the second half that he had opportunities again. Ariel Holan used it as a repellant and at one point it served her well. During his only score with the striped jersey, against Unión Española in Santa Laura, the player was moved to tears. “I thank the teacher and the classmates who accompanied me. It’s finding me,” he said that day. Words that reflected the heartbreaking days he lived through.

Despite this, the coaching staff and management chose not to extend their relationship with the student establishment. “From a footballing point of view, the times he had to play, he brought things. The non-football issues have complicated his time in the country. The club and the technical staff showed their confidence in him, he ended up playing. If the other had not happened, it would have been a good contribution. Unfortunately, between the injuries and this problem he had, he couldn’t. We have already informed him that we are not going to offer a contract extension,” José María Buljubasich said in November.
