July 14-Celta officially announced a list of warm-up matches to the United States and Mexico last week, in which Dennis Suarez, the main midfielder, was defeated. Celta officials have not given a reason, but it is widely believed that it is directly related to the controversy between Celta and Real Madrid over the transfer of 12-year player Bryan Buga í n a year ago.
In the summer of 2021, Real Madrid and agency Intermedia Sport Player took 12-year-old talented player Bryan Buga í n from Celta without prior notice and compensation, sparking a strong reaction from Celta.
Celta president Carlos Mourinho has announced that all youth players who have contracts with Intermedia Sport Player will either terminate their contracts with the agency or leave Celta. Celta will not consider renewing some professional contract players with the Intermedia Sport Player.
These include Celta captain Aspass and Dennis Suarez, who is believed to be the next team leader and captain. Both players later protested the decision through social networks, but Aspass chose to reconcile with the club, while Dennis did not.
Before the start of last season, Celta President Carlos Mourinho publicly sent a strong signal to Dennis Suarez: “next, Dennis Suarez either choose to leave on his own, or play his best performance this season, and then bring the team a sizeable offer from .” We will not renew our contracts with Intermedia Sport Player players. ”
In the 21-22 season, Dennis Suarez made 40 appearances as the core force of the team, scoring 4 goals and sending 6 assists. Dennis Suarez has repeatedly expressed his desire to renew his contract and even offered to negotiate a contract extension without the participation of the agency, but it was rejected by Celta, and Mourinho even said that in the 22-23 season, if Dennis Suarez does not leave, he will sit in the stands.
On July 6th, as preparations for the new season began, Dennis Suarez once again expressed his dissatisfaction with Celta’s attitude: “I think this situation is very unfair to me. As far as I know, there are three players who are still under the Intermedia Sport Player and they have renewed their contracts.” I hope President Mourinho will tell me why he didn’t renew his contract with me. ”
The next day, Celta announced the list of North American trips, and Dennis Suarez was defeated.
This week the Spanish Professional Football Union issued a statement expressing concern about the situation of Dennis Suarez and said it had sent a letter to Celta President Jose Mourinho that it would consider legal measures to protect the rights and interests of players.
According to current news, including the Spanish Football Association, Laliga and other organizations have expressed concern about Dennis Suarez’s situation and support the protection of players’ rights. The Spanish players’ Union will not rule out a direct dialogue with Celta to help the team solve the current predicament.
Searle Radio revealed that Dennis Suarez made it clear that he was willing to renew his contract without the participation of his agency without making a profit, but was rejected by Celta, which makes people very suspicious that Celta’s real purpose is not to punish the agency behind it, but just to force the player away in this way to release his pre-tax salary space of about 6 million euros.
