¿Podrá usar su apodo? Colo Colo envía solicitud especial a la ANFP por Vozinha

The president of the Chilean Football Federation (ANFP), Pablo Milad, confirmed that Colo Colo has submitted a formal request for Vozinha to be allowed to play in the National Championship using the nickname that made him famous worldwide. This is because the current regulations of the local tournament do not allow players to use nicknames on their jerseys. The problem arises because “Vozinha” is not the Cape Verdean goalkeeper's real name, but rather a nickname that, in Portuguese, means “grandmother.” The goalkeeper's full name is Josimar José Évora Dias. Last night, in an interview with DSports, Milad stated that the ANFP will evaluate Colo Colo's request. “This will be analyzed tomorrow with the legal department. There is already a formal request from Colo Colo. We will review it tomorrow morning and notify Colo Colo of the decision,” the official indicated, confirming that the club will receive a response this Tuesday. #vozinha #colocolo #sports #chile #news
