This Thursday, in a talk with the 6 AM program on Caracol Radio, Colombian player Juan Guillermo Cuadrado revealed details of his autobiographical book, in which he talks about the difficult test he had to overcome in Argentina. Some do not know that the Juventus side tried unsuccessfully at Boca Juniors and Tiro Federal. “He was very small and skinny,” he said in an interview on RCN a couple of years ago.
“In Argentina I thought about going back to Colombia because I was already enduring a lot of hunger. In Europe I said, I’m not leaving here, I’m not going back to Colombia, I’ve already got here. I had to tell God that he had brought me here, I had I have to pursue my dream no matter what, “said Cuadrado and stressed that” I had very difficult situations in my career. I always thought that I was going to be a professional player with the help of God. “
Juan Guillermo also highlighted the role of his mother, Marcela Bello, who supported him in his career. “The most important thing was the principles and values that my mother gave me even in a difficult environment. At that time, through sports, one saw something different. I did not see the time to train and play. My mother received many NOs, but she is a warrior and she gave me that as an example. She got up and went to work in the banana plantations, I saw her effort to give me her best. “
Finally, the side who is preparing to join the Colombian National Team next week and face the South American Qualifiers, left a piece of advice to those who want to be footballers. “In Colombia we are working, there is a lot of talent from young people who always want to give more. God has given us all a gift and a talent, but many times people want everything easy, but in life there is nothing easy. We must have the culture of wanting to work and not wanting everything given away. I think we should have that thought. “
