Victim of serial injuries for several years, Renato Sanches recently resorted to a shaman to put an end to what he considers to be a curse.
The seasons follow one another and are similar for Renato Sanches. Whatever his club, the Portuguese international is more often in the infirmary than on the pitch. Stalled at PSG, the former Munich player hoped to relaunch at AS Rome where he was loaned last summer but once again, he has to deal with a series of injuries.
“Renato Sanches is a player who is too often uncertain. It’s difficult to understand. Bayern Munich did not understand, neither did PSG. We get tired of trying to understand”, José Mourinho said of him at the beginning of the fall after his premature exit against Sheriff Tiraspol. Since the start of the season, the Portuguese has had to make do with seven meager appearances for only 149 minutes of play. This is bound to frustrate him.
According to an exchange with his former Lille partner, Jonathan Ikoné, captured by Italian television during the match between AS Roma and Fiorentina, the native of Lisbon even considers himself the victim of a curse, that someone ‘one would have thrown it at him. And to overcome this bad luck, the 26-year-old even called on a shaman, according to the Republic. Information that the person concerned firmly denied.
