Mexico City. Ana Campa, a León player, revealed on social networks that she has not received adequate attention from the club after suffering a hit by a ball during training that permanently affected her eyesight.
“In September of last year I had an accident, in training. A ball hit me very hard in the face and greatly affected my vision. Unfortunately, my club has not given me the support I expected, I did not receive immediate attention nor did they care to address my loss of sight in the following weeks.
Therefore, I searched on my own for a specialist and therapies in Mexico and the United States. Since I am Mexican-American, and not being treated in León, I returned home to Texas for a few weeks to get some care. When consulting with specialists, they have told me that my disability is permanent; In other words, I will not be able to play soccer again,” he said in a publication on the social network X.
Campa explained that a month ago he returned to Mexico to process his disability at the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS). However, “no one from the club staff has accompanied me or helped me to know exactly what I have to do, nor have they asked me, even if it is how I feel or if I need something.”
“More than seven months after my injury. I am tired and desperate, I have not taken therapies nor have I had the necessary attention to rehabilitate my eyes. “I want to return home to my family in Texas. I hope to find a solution with the club, where both parties agree and where the support is not just as a footballer, but as a person can change in our club and our league,” said.
Club León responds
The León club issued a statement stating that Ana has been treated by specialists from private institutions and indicated that “club personnel have been present” in all Social Security assessments. He indicated that they are now awaiting the results of the studies carried out by the IMSS to determine permanent disability.
“The IMSS is the only institution that can determine the degree of disability of our player; “We are waiting for a resolution,” he noted.
