Surprising news is reaching us from the Olympic Village in Paris. It turns out that one of the swimmers has been removed from the premises. There would be nothing strange about this if it weren't for the reason why such a decision was made. The sports community is in shock.

The Olympic Games in Paris are underway and have gained full momentum. Every day, many athletes win medals and proudly represent their countries. Of course, such large events cannot take place without any controversies. The Paris Games are marked by discussions about transgender individuals and the lack of respect for biological women. Social media buzzes every day. However, it turns out that there are other problems, too.

Very unusual and surprising information has reached us from Paris. It turns out that one of the swimmers from Paraguay has been expelled from the Olympic Village. She was staying there after her competition had ended, which is legal and in accordance with the rules prevailing during the Games. However, the organizers decided that her behaviour was not proper and she could not stay in the village. Luana Alonso announced the whole situation on social media.

Swimmer from Paraguay expelled from the Olympic Village

Luana Alonso is a swimmer from Paraguay born in 2004. She flew to Paris to proudly represent her country during the competition in the Olympic pool. Unfortunately, she did not achieve much. She did not pass the preliminary stage in the discipline of women's 100-metre butterfly. The swimmer couldn't handle the pressure and announced on social media that she was retiring from her sports career. She apologized to Paraguay for her performance at the Games.

The Paraguayan Olympic Committee explained the decision to the swimmer from Paraguay, Luana Alonso, who stated that since she could still stay in the Olympic Village, she would start enjoying life there. She toured Paris, shopped at the best stores, went to Disneyland, and met with other athletes. However, the girl was asked to leave the Olympic Village, which surprised her.

The Paraguayan Olympic Committee cited the official reason as "behaviour creating an inappropriate atmosphere" among national team members. The official statement also said that Luana Alonso distracts other athletes, which is simply unacceptable. The girl wrote on Instagram that no one had thrown her out from anywhere. This is her only comment so far.
