The administrative director of the Honduran Soccer Federation Gerardo Ramos in statements to Diario DIEZ, referred to the call that the Federation of the United States made to the player Keyrol Figueroa, son of the captain of a thousand battles of the “H” Maynor Figueroa.

Initially, the federal official established with crystal clarity that FENAFUTH has been talking for a long time with Keyrol’s parents; considering that, “Maynor Figueroa is from the house, apart from being a national team player he is a friend, we have a good relationship with him, starting from the fact that he has been captain of the national team for a long time, therefore, one only has to imagine the number of conversations that we have had with Maynor for more than eleven years”, affirms Ramos.

According to the FENAFUTH executive, he personally has 7 to 8 months of these conversations with the player’s family, however, he adds that according to his parents, the consideration of accessing a call was premature, establishing that the priority is the studies of his son and the football consolidation with Liverpool in England during those months.

The player has been renewed by Liverpool and since then he already has high sporting qualifications according to Ramos, who also reiterates that, “indeed there have been several rapprochements with Keyrol and his family, and it is worth making a review that the player has lived in England since he was one year old (he was born in Honduras), but he has lived outside the country for 15 years and due to the same possibilities that Maynor has, as a father he has promoted them, in addition to England, also in the United States, so he currently has three passports,” he says.

Obviously, the North Americans, like Honduras, have seen an important opportunity for his talent in reference to Keyrol, “coincidentally yesterday I was talking with Maynor about this issue and we remembered that in past months he had been invited to a UEFA U-17 tournament held in Europe and those dates coincided with the academic period in England and it did not materialize, even that schedule was shared with us; At the end of the U-20 pre-world championship, we continue talking, because the Federation initiated the U-17 process and we sent the schedule to Maynor to find options, but from the perspective of a father, his role is to guide them and It will be the children who make their decisions and they must be respected”Gerardo Ramos said.

According to Ramos, for now there is an advantage: “since, in the minor teams, there is no problem that a player can change Federation or national team, the difficulty would be that it was a major team, because there would be no progress behind”. he said he.

The FENAFUTH administrator stressed that, “the issue does not happen because the federation has stopped making efforts, on the contrary, I insist that a fluid dialogue with Maynor and his wife has prevailed and they have never told me no, they have told me that his son would have to think about it very well, and I think we are all aware that, in addition to the Honduran passport, he has two more from First World countries, but they have never told me no”, confided the federative official.

He also commented that He has no doubt that Maynor Figueroa would like his son to play for Honduras, because he knows his country and his football, as a national team he has been one of the benchmarks in recent times, but at the same time he is a father and all of us who are parents, direct his steps, but ultimately they decide”, concluded Ramos.
