Dissatisfied with sitting on the bench, the deputy captain of La Liga team was removed from office

La Liga team Mallorca Club recently issued an official statement, imposing severe punishment on the team's deputy captain Danny Rodriguez for his controversial remarks on social media after the game.

The 37-year-old midfielder will be punished with a 10-day salary suspension and the removal of his position as deputy captain, and the club made it clear that he will never have the opportunity to wear the captain's armband in the future. The fuse of the

incident was that Mallorca lost 1-2 away to Real Madrid last weekend. At that time, head coach Hagoba Alasat chose to let 19-year-old new aid Jan Billgili start, and put meritorious veteran Rodriguez on the bench. Bill Gilli had just arrived from Barcelona for free before, and after joining, he only participated in the team training once. After the game, Bill Gilli excitedly hugged his family in the stands to celebrate his career debut, but this scene deeply hurt Rodriguez. He posted a post on Instagram news to express his dissatisfaction: "I have always respected the coach's decision, but it is painful to see my years of hard work, dedication and loyalty being ignored. A newcomer who has just arrived immediately gets the opportunity, and those who have given all for the team are forgotten." He further pointed out that this practice sends an extremely negative signal to the locker room - diligence and loyalty are no longer important.

Despite his emotional excitement, Rodriguez sent his blessings to Bill Gilli on social media and promised to help the young player integrate into the team. He also posted photos of his family playing in the stands at the Bernabeu Stadium, with a meaningful text: "Never expect anyone, when respect and professionalism are gradually disappearing."

Since joining in 2018, Rodriguez has made 277 appearances for Mallorca, one of the key contributors to the team's two promotions to La Liga and is regarded as a legend of the club. However, after this heavy penalty, the meritorious veteran undoubtedly cast a huge shadow on the future of Ibirostar Stadium.
