The daughters of the former Peruvian footballer did not hesitate to offer their unconditional support and expressed themselves through their social media.
"Persecution! You have been through this several times and you have risen from it. You did it with work, passion, positivity, turning a deaf ear, conviction, perseverance, and above all, love for what you do. That hand you put on your heart always identified you with your country, I don't think I know anyone who loves their land, their music, and their people as much as you do. You were always alone on this path, many hugs yes, but they always left you alone, yet you came out stronger," shared Fernanda Reynoso.
"It is clear to us that the issue is not football, the issue today is personal. KEEP GOING, do it as always, in the end things always fall into place. You always carried the frustrations and complexes of others on your back. Success in life. FAMILY! I LOVE YOU! Text from Rocío S.," added in the Instagram story.
On the other hand, his daughter Marcia also spoke out on her social media to share another reflective message amid the wave of comments towards Juan Reynoso. "Silence stimulates the executioner. -Elie Wiesel. The worst enemy of a Peruvian is another Peruvian," she pointed out.
