Real Valladolid CF announced it will not renew the contract of its player, Luis Pérez. This decision, which had been considered by the club's sporting management for some time, was influenced by the player's off-field behavior.
Pérez, a left-back, has had a strained relationship with a segment of the Valladolid fanbase since last season, despite the team's promotion. This season, his extra-sporting issues, and the latest incident involving an altercation, led the club to decide against a contract renewal.
The club clarified that they cannot confirm whether Pérez will fulfill his remaining three months of his contract, stating the matter is in the hands of their legal department.
Pérez's agent, while acknowledging his client's mistakes, points out that Pérez apologized for his behavior and suggests that everyone makes mistakes. He also emphasizes that the club has not contacted them regarding a contract renewal or any disciplinary procedures beyond the existing open proceedings.
