Milena Merino, a journalist who works as a commentator and panelist at GOLPERÚ, spoke loudly and clearly about the rumors that were spread years ago about a supposed relationship with Pablo Bengoechea, current sports manager of Peñarol.
On the YouTube channel of sports journalist Giancarlo Granda, called "Tiempo Muerto," the communicator revealed that she never had a relationship with the coach other than work-related and that everything was the result of comments that originated on social media.
In the conversation, Milena clarifies that these accusations began when she started covering the Alianza Lima team. Every news that happened within the club or minutes before the match, such as the line-ups, she was the first to report them.
As a result, some internet users indicated that it was because she had a relationship with Bengoechea. "At that time, I covered Alianza Lima, I covered it for five years. In the five years, with different coaches, I had the confirmed starting lineup 100%, I never made a mistake," the journalist stated.
"I had the information, the exclusives, what happened internally, for and against. One day someone tweeted saying that I was Pablo Bengoechea's mistress and that's why I have the information," she added.
