On social networks, Santos observed a huge demonstration by fans due to Soteldo’s injury. And the speculation that started to spread was that the goalkeeper Vladimir had been responsible for injuring his partner. In a post on his official profile, the number ten denied and stated that the sprained ankle happened in a bid alone.
“Thank God it was nothing serious. In a little while I’m back in the field. I twisted alone. Don’t believe what people say. My companion Vladimir did nothing“, published Soteldo.
