“When Tata Martino came, on the one hand I was happy that he was going to direct me, but I didn’t want to be there anymore. One day he locked me in the video room of the Newell’s complex and told me that he had me in mind. I immediately clarified: ‘Tata, the truth is, I don’t want to be here one more day. I’m having a really bad time. I don’t go out on the streets, I go out to train and lock myself in my house. I’m having a hard time. My wife and my baby see me cry every day, ‘”he described.

Noir reflects on that bad moment that affected his career and alerted the youngest to this kind of thing: “You have to set limits. Someone capable said it in joda and he killed me. My family got sick. It was an unpleasant moment that I don’t wish on anyone. Either he would get over it or he couldn’t play football anymore ”.
