[Saba Sports News] Recently, Real Oviedo veteran Santiago Cazorla posted on Instagram to refute rumors that he was involved in pushing for the head coach’s dismissal. Lately, Real Oviedo has been going through a tough time. The team successfully returned to La Liga in June after a 24-year absence, and their start to the season hasn’t been bad for a team that has been away from the top flight for so long – earning 6 points in 8 matches, including games against the top three teams in the standings. Therefore, the dismissal of their heroic promotion-winning coach, Veljko Paunovic, came as a surprise. However, team captain Cazorla was widely speculated to be one of the forces behind Paunovic‘s departure. Although Cazorla was the first to publicly bid farewell to Paunovic, many still focused their attention on him. This situation has left Cazorla deeply displeased, as he posted a strongly worded message on Instagram: “I don’t know who I find more pathetic – those who fabricate rumors about me or those who believe them.” What do fans think about this?
