Paolo Guerrero
Paolo Guerrero concluded his meeting with FIFA on Tuesday without any success. However, on Monday the captains of France, Australia, and Denmark united in support of the captain of the Peruvian national team in his fight to go to Russia 2018. In this sense, Danish captain Simon Kjaer came to the defense of the forward.
"It is difficult for someone who is so close to playing in the World Cup to be unfairly hit like my colleague from Peru is experiencing. I am pleased to show solidarity with Paolo Guerrero, who will be our rival in the World Cup. I am glad that FIFPro is seeking to help him," stated the Danish defender in an interview for bold.dk.
But this is not the only thing that Simon Kjaer stated, as he also added that "we all support the fight against doping in sports, but I hope fair play wins in this particular case."
These statements show the complete opposite of what was indicated by the director of the Anti-Doping Authority of Denmark, who affirmed that "he did not understand how the captains had supported Paolo Guerrero, as a player would never admit his guilt."
