Sebastián Morquio, former Uruguayan defender and current football coach, was involved in a complicated situation after his mixed-breed Pitbull dog scratched his mother while she was eating in bed. This incident led a neighbor to report Morquio, who ended up being detained because the dog belonged to him. Despite this adversity, Morquio is also concerned about his family's difficult economic situation, as he is the one responsible for supporting his mother.
In his statements, Morquio expressed his regret for what happened and apologized to those affected, in addition to asking for help from anyone who could offer support to him and his family in these challenging times. After an extensive career in football, where he played for 14 different teams in countries such as Russia, Chile, Argentina, and Ecuador, Morquio retired in 2013 to become a coach and player representative.
In 2021, the former defender found himself unemployed after spending a month in prison the year before. He explained that his life took an unexpected turn after being an intermediary in player transfers to clubs in Argentina and Chile to support his family. Due to a lack of work and personal problems, Morquio has turned to social media to request collaboration through a video in which he mentions the difficult situation his family is experiencing, including the fact that they have an eviction notice pending and his wife is pregnant.
In an attempt to find support and solutions to his problems, Sebastián Morquio made a public call through his official accounts, where he shared his payment platform alias for those who want to provide financial assistance. Despite the difficulties, Morquio is grateful for any support he may receive and seeks to move forward during this challenging time.
