Rafael Nadal sent a Christmas greeting message this Thursday in a video recorded at the facilities of his academy in Manacor, in which also offers its condolences to the relatives of those who died from the covid-19 pandemic. “The year we said goodbye has been to forget, without a doubt,” says the Mallorcan tennis player.
“Hello everyone, I would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and the best for everyone in 2021 from the academy,” says Nadal.
“This year that we said goodbye has been to forget, without a doubt. It is the most complicated year we have lived, at least since I can remember, and I want to send a lot of encouragement and condolences to all those people who have lost a loved one, and also, in the way that it has been lost. A lot of encouragement and let's hope that things will gradually get better “.
The winner of twenty Grand Slam titles, who is scheduled to participate in the Australian Open, recalls in the video that his foundation will be 10 years old in 2020. “Many projects that we had in hand have had to be postponed. Let's hope that in 2021 things will improve,
that the vaccine can reach the majority of homes and that we can recover the life we all knew and with this, from the foundation we can continue to grow and support more boys and girls who may really need opportunities for the future “, wishes the tennis player.
Nadal, after sending “a hug to all”, appeals to “responsibility” in the fight against coronavirus: “I believe that it is a delicate moment, without any doubt, with which it also depends on us that things do not get worse that it is enough as they are,” concludes the athlete
