The trigger was the t-shirts, supplied by Castore, a relatively new company on the market based in Manchester.
After losing in Warsaw (Poland) 3-2 against Legia, in the group stage of the Conference League, some players from the squad made up of Argentines Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martínez and Emiliano Buendía complained.

“They fill up very quickly with perspiration” and that humidity makes them heavy, generating difficulties in their movements on the court, in addition to the image of fatigue that they show to their rivals.
According to the source of the English newspaper, The footballers have expressed their disagreement with the two types of shirts: the home one and the away one.. “It’s just as bad,” they said. A meeting with the supplier is scheduled to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
“It is a problem that must be resolved. It cannot last the entire season. After about 10 minutes, the players seem to have jumped into a pool,” the source reiterated to Telegraph Sport.
