Oliver Sonne arrived in Peru and began training in La Videna with the rest of the Peruvian national team players. The Silkeborg IF footballer from Denmark was happy to defend the Blanquirroja jersey and share the pitch with the rest of the team. However, a challenge for Sonne was the language, as he does not speak Spanish.
In this context, one of the youngest members of the Peruvian team has become the defender’s “translator” along with the other teammates. Next, we’ll tell you who it is.
Which player became Oliver Sonne’s “translator” in the Peruvian team?
The bicolor footballer who helps Oliver Sonne communicate with his teammates is striker Matías Succar. This was announced by Fernanda Huapaya, reporter for ESPN Peru.
“The linguistic mediator was Matías Succar, who was a kind of mediator between Oliver Sonne and the rest of the group. And as is also known, he spoke more with Matías, with Luis “Abram, Aldair Fuentes and Aldo Corzo,” said the journalist.
In addition, he claimed that although he communicates more with the above-mentioned footballers, he gets along well with the entire group, as happened then – according to the journalist – with Gianluca Lapadula. “It is a positive precedent and in the same way they welcomed Oliver Sonne,” he said.
