Then, in an interview with 100% Deporte, he revealed the ailment in his right knee with which he lives.

“What I feel is a constant sting in my knee. Luckily it doesn’t generate liquid because I couldn’t even move it, but it gets stuck and I can’t even bend it. The days before each game I take three pills and hours before playing they inject me with Voltarén (anti-inflammatory and analgesic),” he indicated.

Furthermore, the top scorer of the Uruguayan team assured that he does not plan to retire, despite the constant martyrdom he endures. Likewise, his family life and his relationship with his son have also been affected.

The truth is that the first steps in the morning are very painful. Anyone who sees me thinks it’s impossible for me to play a game. “My son asks me to play with him and I can’t,” she lamented.
