Cádiz player Rafael Giménez 'Fali' made clear his refusal to play again if there is no one hundred percent health guarantee and assured that life would not be gambled "not even for five billion" no matter how much his team occupies the first position in the Second Division.
"My decision is made, I will not go to train or play." I know that the president and my colleagues love me a lot and know that this is my decision. I have already commented on other occasions. The League can be delayed for a few months and nothing would happen, "he explained in statements to 'Tiempo de Juego' by Cadena Cope.
"I am the first one who wants to play what we have left. But why can't we stop this altogether instead of being with 400 deaths a day? Thank God the soccer players we can go without charging several months until there was a treatment. And I would do it for all those who do not charge as much and cannot. I prefer to eat a piece of bread with oil rather than put my family and colleagues at risk, "he added.
"Soccer has shown again that they cannot beat us in solidarity," he added in this regard, especially when asked about the tests to detect the coronavirus. "The tests that I am going to do, that are for other people who need them more. Is money worth more than health? Not for five billion do I risk my life," he said.
"Of course I want to play, I am the first interested in winning on the field, but there are 400 dead (daily in Spain) and do we want to train and play? We are going to help as much as possible. Football is totally separate," he added. the Cádiz defender.
