Rangers lose. A global scandal is said to have engulfed Jose Cifuentes after Ecuadorian players went out clubbing in New York after their weekend friendly against Italy.
The misfit midfielder, who is now on loan from the Light Blues to Cruzeiro in Brazil, did not play in Sunday’s 2-0 loss of his nation against the Azzurri at Red Bull Arena in New Jersey.
On social media, footage of several team players in an adult nightclub the night before the match surfaced.
Among them was the sixteen-year-old wonderkid Kendry Paez, who is expected to sign a £17 million contract to join Chelsea from Independiente del Valle after turning eighteen in the summer of 2025.
Four players—Paez, Robert Arboleda, Piero Hincapie, and Gonzalo Plata—were allegedly engaged, according to a statement issued by the Ecuadorian Football Association. “Given the facts that are known to the public, the FEF expresses the following,” they stated. On Friday, March 22, from 2:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m., the official delegation had free time; this timetable was strictly adhered to. Photos of incidents that go against the ideals and values that the Federation [FEF] upholds as an organization have been circulated, and this will be taken into consideration when analyzing any upcoming call-ups.
The Rangers midfielder Cifuentes is identified, along with Willian Pacho, Jeremy Sarmiento, and Moises Caicedo, who is also at Chelsea, according to allegations from South America that additional players were seen separately in another nightclub.
