Universitario Removes Raúl Ruidíaz’s Image From Club Museum After Post-Loss Video

Club officials linked the removal to a video he posted after the 4-0 defeat to Palmeiras.

Overview

  • Marketing chief Daniel Amador said the club acted to defend the institution and stressed no one is above Universitario.
  • Ruidíaz told reporters the decision does not affect him and said he did not know his image was displayed at the Museo Crema.
  • He added that he is focused on Atlético Grau and insisted he would not publish anything intended to harm the club where he began.
  • The controversy followed a social-media clip in which he sang in Portuguese referencing a 4-0 scoreline after Universitario’s Copa Libertadores loss to Palmeiras.
  • Libero reported that a return to Universitario earlier this year fell through over financial terms, reflecting a relationship now further strained.
