The striker Maximiliano Salas executed the termination clause of 8 million euros and left Racing To join River Plate, with a strong message against the leadership headed by Diego Militowhom he accused of “unleashed” and “giving false information.”
The player decided to break the silence after formalizing his departure and published on social networks a hard letter in which he signed up directly to the authorities of the Avellaneda club for never having improved the contract, despite his good yields and titles obtained.
“I have left these colors always until the last breath. I have been responsible in the training, I have represented the club in the best way, putting everything of me because this is my work. But I also know where I come from and for everything that I have passed. From a very young age I made myself alone, nobody gave me anything,” Salas began in his discharge.
The attacker said he arrived at Racing “free, with the pass in his hand” and that the initial salary was never reviewed. “The contract that I had until today is the same one I signed at that time and they never gave me anything extra. Never. With the new leadership, repeatedly my representative came to ask me to update my salary and told him: ‘Keep demonstrating'”he shot, alluding to the current management that leads a military.
On the versions that he had given his word to Racing and then he went to River, was overwhelming: “I never gave my word to anyone, nor the hand. That is absolutely false. When River called me, I had not yet improved the contract. Just there they realized that I ‘existed’ and they offered me the new contract when there was already River’s interest.”he said.
In another paragraph, he pointed against the club’s communication strategy. “I know that the fan is not to blame, but the leadership made me suffer all this time. And they give false information to the press of my lack of word”he wrote, visibly annoying.
“I decided to go for dignity, after its destrurement for months. I always went ahead, but it is easier to take care of everything to give my face and admit that they were wrong,” he completed to justify his departure.
In the same message, he thanked the fans who supported him “in good times and in the bad”, to the coaching staff of Gustavo Costas and his teammates.
Salas leave Racing after having won the South American Cup and the Collect South Americanbeing one of the most decisive strikers in both tournaments. His incorporation to River was confirmed on Wednesday.
