The back and forth in between Joel Raffo and Jean Ferrari, president of Sporting Cristal and administrator of Universitario respectively, continue. This Wednesday, a day after the Cream manager explained that the alleged interest of the “U” in signing Yoshimar Yotún had the real purpose of destabilizing the opposing club, the boss of the Rimense team reiterated that the media battle to the player is actually the case has not changed the existing plans for the renovation.
“Although they can say a lot from outside, from other teams, there are already established agreements that are very complicated to change. What he could say now, because I think he has radically changed his version, he has not had and will not.” “We have no influence on the commitments we make, not only with 'Yoshi' but with several players” said Raffo at Sporting Cristal's 68th anniversary celebration.
The businessman also added that he had evidence that the Ate cast was interested in some of his team's footballers, which was the case Ferrari he had denied in a recent interview.

“The matter of 'Yoshi' was reported in the media, but we have evidence that several of our home-trained players had intentions. It is more than disturbing, it makes us proud because they are focusing on players who have value in the Peruvian and international market,” said the president of Cristal.
What did Jean Ferrari say about the “interest” in Yotún?
Speaking to journalist Óscar del Portal, Jean Ferrari told his truth about why Universitario had apparently shown interest in the Peruvian team's midfielder.
“To me 'Yoshi' seems like a great player, but they bought (the story). I have a lot of them from the 90s, when the rivals talked to each other and it was usually about arguing about budget issues. That’s me. “From an old school perspective, it seemed like an opportune moment to be able to mention something like that,” the former player said.
