translated from Spanish: Jorge Valdivia wants to stay in Colo Colo and play the Liberators

The tournament is over and in Macul they began projecting in 2020. The dealership is defining which players are continuing and is negotiating with those who could continue. That is the case of Jorge Valdivia, because the steering wheel has the support of the technician. “The ‘teacher’ – Salas – wants me to go on, next year there are Copa Libertadores and that motivates me a lot,” he said. However, it lacks the backing of the leadership to continue wearing white next year. “Now you’ll have to see the people in charge of negotiating and there must be a club position in relation to that. The important thing is that the ‘teacher’ wants it to continue next year and that is appreciated, considering how little and nothing I played this year,” he said. In the next few days will define what happens to the future of the steering wheel, he recognizes that he does not yet want to hang the boots. “Now it’s going to depend on what can happen in what’s coming in relation to renovations (…) We have to see what’s going to happen. Now you have to see the club if you want me to continue. The idea is to keep playing,” he said. Valdivia acknowledged that she has heard offers since she had the option to negotiate, in mid-2019: “I’ve been listening to offers since the day I was free to do so. From June or July you could negotiate with any other club,” he said. Finally, he belittled the existence of a purported interest from Santos FC of Brazil, as he stated that “when you hear me talk about something, of some team, you can trust, because I am not one of the players who calls the press to put my name on a team , I haven’t and I’m not going to do it, it doesn’t go with my personality. When my name comes out, if it’s not out of my mouth, forget it.”
