The UD Las Palmas player, Kirian Rodríguez (28), appeared this Thursday to the media to announce that he has fallen from the Hodgkin lymphoma. The player will have to go through chemotherapy treatment and must stop for six months. Football, naturally, is in the background.
This was transmitted by the captain of the island team in his press conference: “They communicate yesterday that I have fallen from cancer. I have the disease again, I have to stop another six months and go through chemotherapy. It is time to fight this disease again. ” It was in August 2022 the first time Hodgkin’s lymphoma was detected. In January 2023, he reported that he had recovered and returned to the playing land.
The Canarian footballer explained that he wanted to be he who said it publicly and said he hopes to return in the 2025-2026 season: “I am 100% convinced that it will be in the First Division.”
The Tenerife wanted to underline his “thanks” to the club and the people who support him. On the other hand, he wanted to appear alone and explained it: “I thank the coaching staff and the players who have respected my decision that they are not here because I think they have to be focused on the important thing, which is Saturday’s game.”
