Total surprise generated in the fans of Win or Serve? the unexpected resignation of Claudio Valdivia, which was announced in this Sunday’s episode of the Channel 13 reality show.
The information was released by Sergio Lagos, who entered the bull run to communicate it to the rest of the participants. Specifically, the entertainer said that after undergoing a series of exams on his knee, the former soccer player had to resign from the reality television show due to injury.
Later, the Wizard’s own brother took a minute to delve into the reasons for his departure.
“Difficult and hard news. “I would have liked to continue competing, but my health is my priority and I can’t continue, I don’t want to be a nuisance for the team.”was downloaded on the screen.
“My knee and a chronic ankle injury make me abandon the competition. “I wanted to meet Pangal again, I fought him, but I’m not in a position today,” he lamented in the middle of his farewell.
And now, in dialogue with The fourthClaudio went further and spoke about this unexpected situation that led him to leave the competition forever.
“They are two different injuries. The first, the one that I have had for a long time is a chronic injury that I have in my right ankle. From when I cut my ligament and I’m fine. And now the one I suffered in the team competition. On the second floor, there I had a blow, I felt it on my knee, but since I was in the competition I continued,” the athlete explained to the pop diary
And along those same lines, he added: “Then we went back to the house and when we got there I looked at my knee and it was swollen, I felt discomfort. Many punctures in the knee. Then I looked at it and said, ‘wow, this doesn’t look good.’ There I spoke with production, I requested ice thinking that it was just inflammation due to the blow. I ask for anti-inflammatory. And since it hurt so much I also asked them to prick me so I could resist.”
However, none of this served to alleviate his physical discomfort.
“The next day I had a very bad night. The next morning I looked at my knee and it was still more swollen. And I decide to talk to production to tell them a little and also request the corresponding tests to know what I have. I am an athlete and I know injuries and blows. It was the first time she was seeing something she didn’t know about. Therefore I took the tests and they found that I had prepatellar bursitis (fluid in the knee),” he said about the diagnosis the doctors gave him.
For this reason, with that background in hand, he had no choice but to abandon the competition.
“It prevented me from moving quickly. I was training to be on par in competitions and that day I couldn’t move. I tried to hold on for a bit but the pain I felt in my knee was honestly bothering me. And that afternoon or the next we had the individual competition. And with the bad knee he couldn’t compete. And I came to compete,” she added.
For this reason, Valdivia revealed that he needed at least three weeks of absolute rest to recover, so he decided to end his participation in the reality television space.
“There I made the decision. I thought about it a lot. The truth is that I had a lot of time thinking about the decision I made, but it was undoubtedly a mature decision. I think my health is more important. Outside I have work, I need mobility, I need to play with my son and risk a knee injury without a good recovery… I wasn’t going to have it inside. Therefore I decided to abandon the competition.”
In addition, the Magician’s brother also regretted his abrupt departure, because as he repeated on several occasions, he accepted this challenge of returning to a reality show because he had the intention of winning it.
“My expectation was the final. Definitely. I always said it. Before entering I said that I had the final pending with Pagan from 2011 (Year 0) and this was the opportunity to relive it. I started from less to more in the competitions, I said, ‘well, Pangal is already 40 years old, I am 37’, there are three years of difference, but this kid was still the best and I said, ‘I need to prepare more than I already I was there and I started training, I started from less to more, in the group competitions I had a good participation. In the singles I already got close to him, in the third I won. I felt good, I was working every day and this injury happened. There I said, ‘well I can’t compete against him’, so I had to prioritize my health and take a step aside.”
Furthermore, regarding his emotion in the last goodbye, he admitted that “it made him sad, also because I became attached to the people who were inside, despite the conflicts that can arise on a daily basis, one still loves people.” .
– What is your evaluation of your stay at Win or Serve?
– My participation was positive, it was me, this has been demonstrated in the chapters, I have seen the affection of the people, I went to compete, I demonstrated it in the competitions. I had no conflicts, which I had also proposed. I am a big person, who thinks things before doing or saying them, I didn’t have romances either. I didn’t feel safe or have feelings for someone to form a romance. The girls are all pretty, but I didn’t have feelings for anyone.
– And with Blue Mary, What’s up? People on social media say she sent her to the Friendzone after confessing her feelings…
– I didn’t send her anywhere, we have a friendship with Blue Mary. I think that’s the ideal word, we had a good relationship within the confinement, I think that outside we will also be very good friends, but nothing more than that. Things between us became super clear. They were good and clear.
– And with Mattucci? There was a lot of talk that they could get chips because of the relationship he had with Dani Aránguiz…
– At first some type of conflict could be generated because he had a relationship with my ex-sister-in-law, but I directly had nothing to discuss on that topic. I did not have a romantic relationship with the person who was his partner at that time, so I was not involved in anything. I didn’t make any comments either. I didn’t do it to my brother, I never said anything about a person, a couple, for so many years, much less was I going to do it to him, since I didn’t know him. What’s more, there were several days when he commented on situations to me, he told me, I laughed, I listened to him, (I gave him) some opinions, some of which do not appear on television, others do. There was one day when we started training, crazy, for about an hour. We talked a lot, about many topics, but nothing, both with him and with the others there was a healthy coexistence, a television coexistence.
