Hand in hand with Santiago Maratea, Independiente is on a mission to raise as much money as possible to settle some of its most important debts and many fans of other clubs decided to contribute to the cause.
But not everyone sees it the same: Guillermo Francella, a fan of Racing, acknowledgedthat he would not collaborate in the collection.
The actor explained that the behavior that the Red's fans had during all these years does not motivate him to help. "They tortured us all our lives," he told TNT Sports.
Despite the fact that nowadays the clubs live very different realities, Francella does not forgive. "I wouldn't donate to Independiente. We lived what we lived at the time and they hurt us a lot, many loaded, "he said, remembering bad moments of Racing.
Guillermo Francella has already said he will not donate, but Maratea insists.
Far from enjoying the difficult present of his rival, the actor does not forgive the chicanes of the past. "We never had weight in the AFA and everyone knows that. We were mocked by them and I'm not going to make fun of them now," he said.
Although he acknowledged that he would not help Independiente financially, Francella stressed that he does not celebrate the institutional and football moment that his classic rival is going through.
"I do not like this present of Independiente, that they are suffering like this because of the bad conductions they had. I suffered a lot with Racing that came to that situation also because of very bad management. The truth is that it makes me very sad to see Independiente like this," he explained.
Santiago Maratea insists and wants Guillermo Francella to contribute to the collection for Independiente
Santiago Maratea asked Guillermo Francella for money for the collection for Independiente.
The influencer learned of the actor's statements, however, he does not give up. On his Instagram account, where he accumulates more than 3.7 million followers, he shared a video in story format with an order for Francella. "Could we send this story to Francella? He's a total idol, I love him. I don't know him, mind you, I never spoke in life, but I like him," Maratea began.
"He said he would not contribute to this collection, but, friend, 80 pesos ... are you going to deny me 80 pesos?" continued Maratea, who shared a link for those who want to collaborate with a minimum contribution.
Also on Instagram, after a few days without making publications, Maratea updated the collection status. How much has been raised? $788,603,261. And it motivated donors to reach $800 million, the next goal.
In addition, he revealed that a few days ago he put the money to yield in Mercado Pago and almost six million pesos have already been generated. "A lot of people were pushing for this to happen. It wasn't that easy, but we did it," he said.
