Athlete Cindy Novoa is one of the best representatives of women’s soccer in Peru and earned the affection of University fans for her great performances. His relevance in the squad is important and it was logical to think he would be for the Copa Libertadores, but it will not be so.
The cream club had already made public the list of players he would count on for the international competition and the absence of Cindy Novoa drew attention. For some time it was rumored that his departure from the ‘O’ was about to occur and the signs confirmed it. And already without a contract, he decided to say goodbye.
Through her social media, Cindy Novoa shared an emotional letter in which she shared her feelings about what was happening. “I have had these last years in University having extraordinary experiences alongside magnificent people who fought alongside me throughout the process,” the athlete explained.
In addition, he revealed some details for which he decided to leave. “I don’t go the way I would like, there are reasons that go against my professional and personal ethics. One should always have the right to express oneself and communicate when one sees that things are not right. Values and respect is non-negotiable, ”he stressed. Cindy Novoa will look for new paths, which will surely be known soon.
Read the full letter from Cindy Novoa
12 years ago my parents decided to come to Lima from Achamal (Amazon jungle) to help me fulfill my dreams. Nothing stopped me even the 27 hours it will take me to travel from my hometown to Lima. I started juggling the streets to pay for my tickets to go train. No one ever gave me anything and I took every opportunity that life has given me with a lot of responsibility and professionalism.
I have lived these last years in University extraordinary experiences alongside magnificent people who fought alongside me throughout the process, qualifying for the Copa Libertadores and being chosen the Best Player in 2014 and 2019. I am very grateful.
Unfortunately I am not going the way I would like, there are reasons that go against my professional and personal ethics. One should always have the right to express oneself and communicate when one sees that things are not right. Values and respect are non-negotiable.
The time has come to continue growing as a professional in football and to look for new directions where I feel comfortable and my ideals are shared. The road is long, but I am sure to maintain the effort and dedication to the sport I love will see great results. I will always have them in my heart!
