It’s the last straw now Radja Nainggolan he made it really great. Not even the time to get over the levity, complete with a stop a few days ago when he was caught driving his car without a license, ex-Roma, Inter and Cagliari now it was suspended indefinitely by Antwerp. It’s not the first time the player has had to deal with situations beyond the lines. And indeed, in addition to being in trouble on two other occasions for traffic violations, in this case the player’s bad behavior infuriated the Belgian club. It all happened just before the championship match against Standard Liège.
The Antwerp team, including Nainggolan, sat on the bench after taking a look at the pitch shortly before the start of the match. At that moment the Ninja he is caught in a video where the midfielder is seen pulling an electronic cigarette from the sleeve of your hood. He then blew out a big puff of smoke to say the least. A total smoking ban has also been in place since last year at football stadiums in Belgium. After seeing this video, Antwerp decided to take a drastic decision by suspending the player indefinitely after an official statement.
Antwerp reportedly decided to send Radja Nainggolan to play with the B team. This is the club’s official note: “Antwerp had a conversation with Radja Nainggolan today in your general behavior and how certain behaviors affect the club and group of players – he said – The club decided to expel Radja from the team indefinitely. Clear agreements have also been made about what our club does and does not expect from its player. Neither the player nor the club will comment further on this.”
And instead, Nainggolan on his official Instagram account posted a story of apology for not fully sharing the club’s decision: “I just want to say I’m sorry for what I did – is read – I was completely wrong about that. But I just didn’t realize it at the time. The club has made a decision that I can only accept, although I may find it a little too heavy, but I will try to contribute in one way or another”.
One more header from the player that is often distinguished by behaviors that companies do not always like. “I didn’t see him,” Van Bommel said after the game. “I have to see him in person before I can judge,” the Dutchman said later, before the club made its final decision.
