Gianluca Lapadula, the threat of a sanction and other Peruvians who left their clubs badly

The first days of 2022 have become quite tense for Gianluca Lapadula. The striker of Benevento He has not played any game so far this year, since his intention is to change scenery before the transfer market ends in Italy (January 31). This decision of the ‘9’ of the peruvian national team It has brought you more trouble than you expected.

Benevento has not seen with good eyes that Lapadula wants to leave in the middle of the season. In fact, the ‘Brujos’ are in fourth place in Serie B and are fighting tirelessly to return to the highest category of Italian football, but without the Peruvian striker things are complicated.

It happens that ‘Lapagol’ has a lot to do with Benevento’s current position.

This situation – already quite uncomfortable – is getting more and more complicated in recent days. The red and yellow institution, in addition to hiring two new forwards as reinforcements, intends to take Lapadula to court with the intention of fining him for refusing to play with the team.

“With Lapadula it ends with stamped cards: ”, was the information recently published by the Italian journalist Massimiliano Mogavero on his Twitter account.

Days before, the ultras of the ‘Brujos’ dedicated a very negative message to the Peruvian striker for his intention to leave. “Lapadula mercenary from another category”, was read on a flag from the stands of the Comunale Ciro Vigorito stadium.

In that context, Gianluca Lapadula -although he didn’t want to- is ending his relationship with Benevento badly, where he has been for a year and a half. Of course, he is not the only Peruvian footballer who badly says goodbye to his club abroad. Here we review some similar cases.

Peruvians who ended the relationship with their clubs badly

Many Peruvians have managed to shine abroad like Claudio Pizarro, who became an idol and a reference not only for Werder Bremen, but also for Bayern Munich. But there are also the opposite cases, of those who had to leave through the back door in their respective clubs abroad.

One of the most recent examples is that of Paolo Guerrero. .

The national striker no longer had any intention of staying with the Brazilian club, concentrating solely on recovering from his knee injury. However, the problems were not unrelated to this situation. The unilateral nature of the information that was initially published for the player to leave the team greatly displeased the “Colorado”.

. From both parties they managed to solve this problem and agreed to the exit of the ‘Predator’ in an amicable way.

It is not the first time that the Peruvian striker has had problems before leaving his club. With Flamengo, the situation was more complicated. Although there were already tense moments, the relationship was definitely ruined after the sanction that FIFA imposed on Guerrero for failing a doping test.

. Even so, the Peruvian planned to renew his contract, but he was no longer part of the ‘Mengao’ plans. All negotiations failed. They never reached a mutual agreement and said goodbye in the midst of a tense atmosphere.

Another Peruvian who has had constant problems with his clubs is christian cave. The most problematic outings in memory of ‘Aladdin’ abroad were with Santos and Yeni Malatyaspor.

Cueva only played five games with Santos, as he never entered the club’s plans. His performance was not convincing. This, added to indiscipline acts during his stay -such as when he got into a fight in a Brazilian nightclub and was suspended-, caused the Peruvian midfielder to leave through the back door of the ‘Peixe’.

Then, in the Yeni Malatyaspor, he only lasted half a year. Although he showed his talent in some games, ‘Aladdin’ did not have a good time at the Turkish Super League club. .

Andre Carrillo He also went through a difficult stage in his career. The ‘Culebra’ had established itself as one of the stars of Sporting Lisbon in 2015 and therefore its continuity was certain. However, everything was complicated by not reaching a mutual agreement to renew.

In February 2016, Sporting itself explained all Carrillo’s contractual problems in an official statement: the Peruvian winger’s initial intention was to renew, but then he suddenly changed his mind.

The list extends with players like Luis Advincula, who left Rayo Vallecano fighting with the fans; Miguel Trauco, who felt that they did not give him opportunities at Flamengo “for not being Brazilian”; Bryan Reyna fired for indiscipline from Mallorca; Raymond Manco expelled by Atlante de México for arriving drunk at a training session and “inventing” a kidnapping; among others.
