He has to face his path and we are going to be supporting himBut now it’s up to him to know what he wants, what he’s looking for, what are your dreams and in the place where you feel happy there you will be”, Mauro said in an interview with Fox Sports.

5️⃣ years in first
⚽️ 11 goals
👟 11 assists
🌍 In Europe it does not even reach 23% of minutes played.

One after another the disappointments have come and His brother Mauro considers that it is time for Diego Lainez to look for his well-being.
