The latest edition of Giancarlo 'Flaco' Granda's YouTube channel had special guest Diego Chávarri, who dared to tell exclusive details of his personal life such as his time on television, the altercation he had with Jefferson Farfán, and his brief football career.
Although the popular 'Diablito' reached the height of fame as a reality TV star on the show 'Esto es Guerra', what some don't know is that he wore the colors of Sporting Cristal and even signed a contract to play in Iran, but he stepped away from the field and is currently a successful entrepreneur.
Regarding this topic, Diego Chávarri revealed to 'Flaco' Granda the real reason why he left his football career and became a celebrity. Was it because of Melissa Klug?
As it is remembered, one of the most talked-about romances in the national showbiz was between Melissa Klug, former partner of 'Foquita' Farfán, and Diego Chávarri. However, the relationship ended and now 'La Blanca de Chucuito' is engaged to Jesús Barco, a player for Sport Boys.
There is no doubt that the life of the former football player changed completely when he started a relationship with the chalaca, and he even acknowledges it in his recent interview.
However, while this factor influenced his disappearance from football, it was not the only reason. Chávarri detailed that he suffered from constant injuries and, combined with new job opportunities like being a reality TV star, were the true reasons for the end of his career.
In addition, he added that his romance with Klug became very public, so people began to recognize him for his love life rather than his career in the beautiful game.
