Darts at Flamengo, flirtations with Messi and Inter Miami and a message to Colo Colo: Arturo Vidal’s strong defenses

Arturo Vidal is ending his relationship with Flamengo and it’s already clear that he won’t continue at the Rio de Janeiro club. These days, he’s focused on ending the relationship with the Brazilian giants in the best possible way, although he’s watching the future out of the corner of his eye. The King analyzes options and looks to new markets. For example, it has been linked to Mexican. “Right now, I’m 100%. If I don’t play anymore, that’s not my problem. It’s complicated when you don’t play. There is no one better than me in my position. I can do things no one else can. My children are here, so it gives me the strength to keep fighting. “, he explains, in statements on DNA radio.

However, the arrival of Lionel Messi in MLS opens up a new horizon for him. Especially if the Argentine star begins to surround himself with personalities who have already accompanied him to Barcelona. There are two powerful and categorical examples: the team will be led by Gerard Martino and in midfield it will be Sergio Busquets . He shared with both of them at the Barcelona club.

Vidal has struck up a friendly relationship with Messi. The third in the group was the Uruguayan Luis Suárez. Contact is maintained. Indeed, it was not difficult for the King to pose for Argentina when the star became world champion in Qatar 2022.”I talked with him. We have a group, we talk a lot. He’s on vacation now, so relaxing. If they want me, they’ll look for me “, he raises in the same interview, in relation to the first steps, at least to the possibility of leaving for North America.

The flyer will have to wait. “I have a contract, I can’t finish it before. I’m sure I’ll go to a team that loves me “, deepens. Of course, he reiterates that, for the moment, he is considering such a distant return to Chile. “I love Colo Colo. All my people are from the club, but that’s not why I’m going back . It must be a serious project, and they must find me. I’m still here to fight, to fight for the Copa Libertadores”, he argues, for example, regarding the option of returning to the club where he was trained.

In this context, he also launched a complaint that has to do with the little recognition he perceives. “I’m a little scared. Now you go and people love you from all the teams. It makes you doubt to go back to Chile, that they treat you badly that the respect that has been earned is lost,” he condemns.

More open is the reflection on the other option he has been linked with: Boca Juniors. The Argentine team wanted him before Flamengo, but Vidal opted for the cariocas’ offer, which was much juicier than the Trans-Andean team’s last effort. “For now I can’t say anything. I’m at my best, I’m waiting for the opportunity that touches me “, He condemned, considering closed the possibility of making assumptions as to a possible arrival at the xeneizes.
