I would honestly love to continue this adventure, but some decisions are beyond our control.
In such a short time, I’ve grown attached to this club, this city, and, above all, its fans, who welcomed me with incredible warmth.
I am proud to have represented these colors and to have given my all every step of the way.
I thank my teammates, the coaching staff, and all the fans for your trust, love, and support.
I would very much like to continue this journey with the team. I’m leaving with wonderful memories and a deep sense of gratitude, with absolutely no regrets about the dedication and commitment I’ve shown along the way.
Thank you for everything, San Diego.”
