They assure that Alvaro Morales would leave ESPN due to alleged friction with the Chilean actor Pedro Pascal

There has been much talk that Alvaro Morales, analyst for the ESPN network, will no longer be at the sports network in the United States starting next December and that his future will be at Fox Sports, but the reason His possible departure is due to his disagreements with Chilean actor Pedro Pascal.

According to information released by the newspaper Record, the controversial announcer will not continue on the so-called world leader in sports because executives from the Disney company that manages the sports channel's destiny decided not to renew his contract, which will expire at the end of the year.

The sports page, through the column Francotirador, claims that Alvaro Morales, with his incisive and controversial style, had differences with the protagonist of the film Fantastic Four, the Chilean Pedro Pascal, and from then on the fate of the announcer of Guatemalan origin was sealed when the company in which he worked for almost two decades decided not to renew his contract.

But faced with this news, executives at the entertainment company Disney decided that as of next December he can negotiate his future with any other company as has been done for a long time, such as TUDN and Fox Sports.

The friction with Pedro Pascal

Meanwhile, the reasons for the differences he had with the actor Pedro Pascal of Marvel Studios, a company that belongs to Disney as well as ESPN, a series of interviews were scheduled with the protagonists of this film, including the sought-after actor who gained much notoriety for his participation in the series from Narcos through Netflix.

This is how Alvaro Morales interviewed Mr. Fantastic and things got out of control when Pascal arrived supposedly wearing a New York Yankees cap,which the ESPN commentator took advantage of to start using his famous sarcasm to provoke him with uncomfortable comments against the New York team of the Major League Baseball (MLB).

Morales reminded him that the team known as the Manhattan Mules was defeated in the last World Series and also that they have not been able to win the title in the last 15 years. The alleged provocations by Alvaro Morales escalated in tone and that led to this supposedly controversial decision.

Pedro Pascal, feeling attacked and annoyed when he thought the interview would be to promote the famous film created by Marvel Studios, did not hesitate to complain to Disney's top brass through his representatives, and the decision was made not to renew his contract on the eve of the 2026 World Cup.

We will have to wait and see if the decision not to renew the contract of one of the strong cards for the World Cup coverage through ESPN, does not represent a hard blow in the great competition expected between the television companies that will cover the universal event.
