Diego Buonanotte and Matías Zaldivia received the letter of nationalization

The footballers Diego Buonanotte, from Universidad Católica, and Matías Zaldivia, from Colo Colo, received on Monday from the hands of the Minister of the Interior, Rodrigo Delgado, their letter of nationality that accredits them as Chilean citizens. Buonanotte has been in the country for more than five years when he signed in July 2016 for the cross table. Note that the ‘Dwarf’ is the foreigner with more titles in the history of the cast of the strip, with five national titles and four Super Cups.The 33-year-old midfielder was a figure in the first two-time UC championship, in addition to the 2016 Super Cup against Universidad de Chile. Then he lost regularity in the first team, although he still continued to add titles.” I am very grateful. This card is a great pride for me and for my whole family,” said the player of Argentine origin after receiving the letter of nationalization in La Moneda.Regarding the quadruple championship obtained with the UC, Buonanotte said that “we achieved something historic. We are the first four-time long championship champions. It is a pride. For all the Crusader people it’s a wonderful thing.” In this way, to renew with the UC or to continue in Chilean football, Diego Buonanotte will not occupy a place as a foreigner. Meanwhile, Zaldivia arrived at Colo Colo at the beginning of 2016 with José Luis Sierra. He has played 123 games in the Alba shirt converting five goals and winning six titles (one National Championship, three Copa Chile and two Supercopa). Like the ‘Dwarf’, the albo defender will release a foreigner quota for the following season.
