While Federico Valverde was at the center of controversy for assaulting a player, his wife also spoke out about the incident.

A number of media outlets said that “Valverde waited for Baena after the match and struck him in the face while chatting afterwards” and that he would face a police investigation over the incident.
Regarding the reason for the assault, he explained, “There is a possibility of miscarriage for Valverde’s wife, who is currently pregnant with their second son, but Baena angered Valverde by saying during the game, ‘Your son will not be born. If you are going to cry, cry now’.” .
When the content of what he said became controversial, Baena immediately denied on social media that the content was not true and that he did not make such a statement.
Due to Baena’s denial, the whole story of the incident fell into a mystery, and Valverde, who committed the assault, is known to be subject to disciplinary action such as suspension in the future. Some say that the matter is serious, and even a six-month suspension is being discussed.
In the midst of this, Valverde’s wife, Mina Bonino, an Argentinian journalist, posted a message containing her own feelings, drawing much attention.
On the 11th, Bonino posted on his SNS, “There is a God who watches over everything. We are calm, but we will not have peace of mind until the child is born, and because of this, we will not be able to heal our wounds.” He expressed the expected emotions of having encountered what he had done.
She went on to point out that Baena’s actions crossed the line, saying “there are lines that must not be crossed, and not everything can be done even in football.”
Valverde and his wife, Bonino, have been very sad since January when the possibility of a miscarriage of their second child was raised. Valverde has so far not made an official statement, but comments from his wife, Bonino, appear to support the claim that Valverde heard the comments.
However, Baena also refuted the arguments of the Valverde couple and complained of the difficult situation recently.
Baena further vehemently denied her comments, saying on her social media account, “There is no evidence that I did anything like that, it is completely false. He used misfortune to justify the assault.”
Regarding the recent situation surrounding him, “Some fans even threatened my family. They said insulting things and even threatened to kill me. The damage done to my family is irreversible, and we hope to report it to the police and make a fair decision.” He said he received death threats.
