As few Sunderland fans will be reading the Uruguayan media on Wednesday, we are here to let you know that the Black Cats get a mention in El País’ sports newspaper Ovación.
They do so in a story about Juan Sartori, who is still a senator in the South American country as well as being a co-owner of the Stadium of Light residents.
Ovación details the many tasks the politician has in his day-to-day life, and mentions that he was the one who handled a recent very important matter at Sunderland.
The newspaper points out that the 43-year-old spends most of his time out of Uruguay, as he’s also the vice-president of Monaco in France, and does his best to handle all of his responsibilities.
That’s probably a nice piece of information for Sunderland fans who will have likely been curious about how Beale’s sacking took place.
The manager had taken charge of the club a couple of months ago and was only in the job for 12 games, with a record of four wins, two draws and six defeats.
