Although it is not common for relatives of soccer players to come out and speak for them, especially when they are in the middle of negotiations or defining their future, the case of Daniela Sandoval has always been controversial. And just like her many times she came out to defend National and Andrés Felipe ‘el Rifle’ Andrade, this time he aimed at the team’s directors.
To give context to her words to the public, she is a possible panelist on the program ‘El Vbar’ on Radius Snail. And last Thursday, November 10, she was on the radio space and let off steam, After the end of the cYour partner’s contract with the institution.
The striking thing is that Daniela was not in the first part of the program, when they were interviewing Mauricio Navarro, recently appointed as “purslane” president. But at the end of the interview he did participate to give his point of view of what the manager said and question many things about his actions and his responses.

The wife of the ‘Rifle’ Andrade ‘shoots’ against the president of Nacional:
In his first participation in the radio space, the wife of the ‘Rifle’ questioned that the defender Emanuel Olivera’s contract had not been renewed, comparing his case with that of Giovanni Moreno:
“I have many doubts and I would like to express something, because the statements I have been hearing seem a bit confusing, especially regarding the reinforcements. I have a very personal opinion in the case of Olivera; he doesn’t seem nice or good to me, what they are doing, commenting on the player’s salary. One of the causes that caused discord in the case of ‘Gio’ Moreno, was that issue, airing certain things, which can leave the player ‘bad standing’…”
But later, Daniela brought the subject to her husband’s case and said that coach Paulo Autuori told Andrade that he could stay at the club, however, it did not happen and at that time he pointed to Mauricio Navarro:
“In my case, it is assumed that Autuori had a right or an important opinion when choosing certain reinforcements. And my question was going there, because he says that, since he became president, there had already been renovations done. And I think that makes the dressing room a little unwell ”
According to the footballer’s partner, he said that they are “very sad”because they did not expect this end of the cycle to occur, also indicates that their partner is being charged for the recent poor performance and not when it was “essential piece” in National campaigns. And, according to her, as offers from other clubs and countries were rejected, now she feels that they are “giving back” for “bassoon”.

The strongest came later when Daniela Sandoval showed her pain, stating that they never made renewal offers to Andrade, that they told her there was no money for a player in her position and then they began to hear that they were going to take creation flyers.
“He has us very hurt, especially him, I have listened to him, he knows that I came to talk a little about this subject. And it is that, he never received a renewal offer. That hurts him, because he says: I gave him 3 years. He gave his best and didn’t even get an offer. And now we hear and read things, that they want players in his position and the comment is that there was no money to hire creative midfielders. That’s where doubt and sadness come from us “
Perhaps, the surprise and sadness of the Andrade Sandoval family is understandable, since Autuori himself met with “el Rifle” and it seemed that he was going to stay in the “purslane” by 2023: “When Autuori arrives, he had a meeting with him and tells him that he would like to have him, that he had seen him in previous videos and matches and that he wants to have him”.
And though she understands that elimination in the BetPlay League 2-2022 could affect, he stated that the directors were the ones who ended up taking advantage to get Andrés Felipe Andrade out: “On the last day, we were in ‘shock’ when he told him that he (Autuori) had asked the directors for it and ‘it got out of hand’… (Did the leaders take it out?) Yes, it was the directors”.
Surely there will be a reaction from the club, the fans will also have a voice to refer to the issue, but the truth lies with the player and Autuori. It would be weird for them to go out and talk like Daniela Sandoval did, but this seems to be the ‘Rifle’ version because she herself stated that he knew what she was going to say on Caracol Radio’s ‘El Var’.
