Macnelly Torres defended Jarlan Barrera for his situation at Nacional

He came out to defend his position. For Macnelly Torres, the fact that Jarlan Barrera is not playing for Nacional because he is undergoing a “physical reconditioning”, as the club put it, is quite “rare” as for him at this point in the Championship it is not for these things to happen .

Therefore, the former player spoke about this situation that the samarium is going through and left in the air that there may be a bad relationship between the midfielder and Brazilian coach Paulo Autuori.

“60 days go by and the medical report they give is that they are undergoing physical reconditioning. Don’t know. People start thinking about other things. Now this can still be a problem for the coach, for a technical decision. Maybe the coach doesn’t like it, or doesn’t see him acting, or his performance, something needs to be done,” the former athlete said on VBar, on Caracol Radio.

The former Colombian footballer said he is aware that the Santa Marta native lacks consistency, but assured he is one of several players the club has.

“Someone who has been there for so many years and knows that when we are already in February and the preseason starts on January 2, you can’t talk about physical reconditioning. Let’s hope it’s a topic for the good of Nacional. Sometimes Jarlan lacks consistency in his game, but he brings different things to the team, with his through ball and all. Dorlan is doing well, but it’s not his natural position and I think Jarlan can do well,” the Barranquilla man commented.

Macnelly Torres’ words in defense of Jarlan Barrera come after the footballer, who played in Junior, did not feature in the Antioquia team’s 3-1 victory at the Atanasio Girardot Stadium against Atlético Huila last Monday.
