Antwerp FC player Anthony Valencia faces scrutiny after substitution

Antwerp FC player Anthony Valencia has faced criticism following a controversial substitution during a recent match against KRC Genk. Despite scoring the opening goal and performing well in the first half, Valencia was replaced by Ibrahim Salah at halftime.

Coach Marvin Compper attributed the substitution to the player suffering from stomach cramps. However, observers have noted Valencia’s unusual lack of celebration after his goal and his decision to remove all references to Antwerp from his Instagram account, leading to speculation regarding a potential transfer.
