A week ago Daniel Osvaldo had launched a desperate request for help on his social media, worrying the world of football and everyone around him: “For some time I have suffered from very serious depression which has made me fall into alcohol and drug addiction.. I want to tell it and share it because I am undergoing psychiatric treatment, “the 38-year-old former footballer said on the networks about him.
Now, Dani Stone, who has accustomed us to the changes in her look, has reappeared “like Thomas Shelby” on a football field. The fact is that the former Boca player showed up in good spirits, with a Peaky Blinders style cap and a Havana cigar.
The curious thing is that Osvaldo did not go to La Bombonera or Tomás Adolfo Ducó, two of the clubs where he left the best memories. He didn’t even go to watch a match between the Professional League Cup and the Argentina Cup.
And the footballer with a long and recognized career showed up at the Pablo Comelli Stadium to watch a clash between Talleres de Remedios de Escalada and San Martín de San Juanfor the eighth appointment of the First National.
The surprise was absolute. No Albirrojo fan could believe that such a figure was in the crowd of his beloved club, smoking a cigar and watching a hotly contested match.which ended in a boring goalless draw.
Even so, his presence has a curious background: Dani Stone is a friend of Federico Patiñomember of the current Talleres technical staff, and, moreover, he represented the red and white colors in 2018, when he played for Senior de los Tallarines.

Osvaldo’s desperate request for help
In a moment of anguish, Osvaldo apologized to his ex-partner Daniela Ballester for previous comments made in a “state of anger and blindness”. However, he underlined the need to talk about his internal struggle: “For a long time I have suffered from very serious depression which has made me fall into addictions, alcohol and drugs. I’m in a moment where my life is getting out of hand and I wanted to tell it and share it with you.”
The former footballer revealed that he is under psychiatric and pharmacological treatment due to a specific illness, which includes lack of self-esteem and depression. His testimony reflects a reality of isolation and desperation. “I live practically alone, closed in the house. I don’t go out anywhere. I don’t do anything productive in my life. Sometimes I don’t even want to get out of bed, sometimes I don’t even want to take a bath,” said No. 9.
Osvaldo acknowledged the negative impact of his actions on the environment, expressing remorse and seeking to take responsibility for his problems. “I want to apologize to Daniela for having to pay at this time because of me. The things I do that are not right, the decisions I make in my life that are not right, the anger I feel with many people, they have to do with me, with my lack of self-esteem, with my depression,” he said. declared. He also referred to his past as an elite athlete: “In the past I was an elite footballer, I was a completely different person, full of security, confidence. “I’m a person I don’t recognize and it’s difficult for me to get out from this situation.”
“I want to tell you that you should be encouraged to talk about this with your families. It is very difficult for me to distinguish what is real and what my head imagines. I want to say this so that if anyone is experiencing something similar, they can ask for help , because they simply can’t. It comes out. I’ll say it again. I don’t want to victimize myself with this, but rather, in some way, force myself not to fall back into the same mistakes. And I feel that if everyone knows what’s happening to me, I won’t be able to escape anymore. and I will have to solve it. I hope you understand me and I hope I can go back to being the same as before one day, nothing more”, he concluded.
