For several days, the separation between Juan Tello and Fernando Belasteguin was unofficial. It is now official. The two Argentines took their time, because we already knew their future partners even before this official announcement of their separation. From Roland Garros at the end of September, Fernando Belasteguín will team up with Tino Libaak, While Juan Tello will partner with Inigo Jofre.

This scripted video is full of freshness. We even see “El Gato” smiling, as if he felt liberated…

Here is the translation of the video for those who do not speak Spanish.

Fernando Belasteguin:
“Hello everyone, Juan and I have decided that Valladolid will be our last tournament together.”

Juan Tello:
“We gave it our all to make this duo work. We had our moments, obviously.”

Fernando Belasteguin:
“I am very grateful for this fantastic and unforgettable week that Gato made me live in Argentina. Without him, it would have been impossible.”

Juan Tello:
“I also want to thank you, Bela, for your sincerity. I know that it was you who made the decision to call me, and for me, whether we like it or not, you have dispelled my doubts. Thank you for sharing your daily life with me and for giving me this energy that I hope to have when I retire in turn.
Thank you, and I wish you the best. You still have a lot of potential and a spectacular game.”

Fernando Belasteguin:
“I have no doubt that we will both enjoy the rest of the year with our new partners.”

Juan Tello:
“See you soon on the field.”
