The double world wrestling champion, Reineris Andreu, left the Cuban national team after his participation in an event held in the Dominican Republic, he confirmed this Thursday the official media Hit. The athlete’s escape is the sixth in this sport so far this year and was evidenced, as often happens, as “indiscipline.”
The news was a bucket of ice water for the Cuban team that finished the regional qualifying event in the Dominican Republic with 16 gold, one silver and one bronze medals. Andreu’s escape limits the possibilities of the Island in the Central American and Caribbean Games, warned the Cuban wrestling coach based in Miami, Daniel Gómez.
With the escape of the athlete from Sancti Spiritus, Gómez explained on his social networks, “Cuba has few options for a gold medal in this division in the Central American and Caribbean Games.”
Without Reineris Andreu and Alexei Alvarez, who “a few months ago asked for their release from the national team and currently resides in Spain”, the island lacks figures in the fight
The coach from Villa Clara recalled that the regime has punished the fight. “They don’t give him the resources to participate in international youth tournaments.” Without Reineris Andreu and Alexei Alvarez, who “a few months ago asked to be released from the national team and currently resides in Spain,” the island lacks figures in this sport.
Last May, deserted the fighters Cristian Solenzal and Yolanda Corderowho took advantage of a trip to Mexico, where the Cuban team participated in the Pan American Championship.
“The exodus of Cubans transcends any category or branch of society,” the journalist Francys Romero published at the time, after learning that the first “undisciplined” at the event in Mexico, as the ruling party described the deserters, was the Olympic champion of Rio de Janeiro 2016 and two-time world champion Ismael Borrero.
At defections de Borrero, Solenzal and Cordero, were joined by Leonardo Herrera (60 Kg) and Amanda Hernández (53 Kg), two young talents who will seek to grow sportingly outside the Island.
