A Moment of Silence please for Vagner Love’s Loss
By: Bob | October 16th, 2007
Sad news to report out of the Brazil national team training camp. CSKA Moscow and Brazil striker Vagner Love has suffered a terrible loss. His is a loss that probably all of us can relate to. Indeed, it pains me just writing this because it is so very personal and it brings back lots of bad memories from my own life, but if we come together as a community we might all be able to overcome this. Friends, Love has lost one of his earrings. An earring that happens to cost 40,000 euros.
Soccerphile has the brief, but poignant scoop:
Russian clubs pay very, very well. Brazil forward Vágner Love lost an earring worth 40,000 euros during a practice at Granja Comary, preparing for WC qualifying games against Colombia and Ecuador.
Vágner was desperate not only over the price but because such an earring can only be purchased in Russia so he will have to wait until he returns to Moscow before he completes the pair.
“I really lost it during training. I hope the Russians agree to sell me just one piece,” said the CSKA player aware that he may have to buy a whole new pair at €80,000.
One can only imagine the pain Love is undergoing at this time. I speak for everyone involved with The Offside in letting him know that our thoughts and our prayers got out to his ears.
