Tegucigalpa, Honduras.
Unexpectedly, the holding midfielder, German ‘Patón’ Mejía, would not continue wearing the colors of Club Olimpia Deportivo in the middle of the Apertura 2023 tournament of the National League of Honduras.
Diario La Prensa learned for the first time that the player asked to leave the team because they are not enjoying many minutes in the current league competition.
In yesterday’s Wednesday match between Olimpia-Olancho, the multi-time champion with the merengue team was called up, but did not appear among the club members at the Chelato Uclés.
German ‘Patón’ Mejía has not played any minutes in this championship with Olimpia.
Added to the above, Diario La Prensa also confirmed that the footballer asked to continue training at the headquarters of the two-time national champion, but he will do this occasionally at the José Rafael Ferrari High Performance Center.
Mejía has seen action in seven of the 11 duels of the Apertura 2023 tournament and also had minutes in the 2023 Concacaf Central American Cup, where the lion was eliminated in the group stage round.
In this way, Olimpia could make official in the next few hours the departure of the Progreso midfielder who won two Concacaf League titles with the merengue team.
HEADACHE FOR TROGLIO
Germán ‘Patón’ Mejía has won 12 titles with Olimpia, nine in the National League, two in Concacaf and one in the Cup.
With the resignation of Germán ‘Patón’ Mejía from the albo team, Pedro Troglio has a new headache, since in the field, only Carlos Pineda has the same similarities as a recovery midfielder.
Jorge Álvarez is the double pivot partner in Olimpia, although Yan Maciel, a Brazilian who has been recovering from an injury, has also seen double five action.
Another of the footballers is Edwin Rodríguez, but the one born in Quimistan is playing as an outside midfielder in the scheme led by Pedro Troglio.
