Jefferson Farfán had a very special guest on the latest episode of his podcast ‘Focused’. In that sense, the former soccer player had the company of his mother Rosario Guadalupe, who told a difficult anecdote that she experienced with ‘Foquita’. Next, we tell you what the popular Mrs. ‘Charo’ said about the complicated moment she spent with her son.
How does Jefferson Farfán lose his life with his mother?
Mrs. ‘Charo’ was on his son’s podcast Jefferson Farfan and he was encouraged to reveal unknown details of what he experienced with ‘Foquita’ when he was a newborn.
The former soccer player’s mother said that she was the victim of an accident with her little boy in the Villa María del Triunfo district. In this regard, Mrs. ‘Charo’ explained that, in the middle of a blackout, she left her house with ‘Jeffry’, who was only nine months old. In the middle of the darkness, Farfán’s mother fell into a silo that was more than a meter and a half deep.
“It was all dark and in the darkness your eyes close. I was walking with my son carrying me and, in that moment, I stepped and fell into a hole. I grabbed him in my arms, after falling, I threw Jefferson,” said Mrs. ‘Charo’ at first.
Then, the mother of ‘Foquita’ said that she was able to get out of the silo and began to search in the darkness for her child: “Until I stepped on his foot, grabbed it and started crying. Then I said, I can die, but my son can’t, he’s starting to live.” .

The childhood of Jefferson Farfan It was not easy. The his mother, Rosario Guadalupe , had to work hard to support his family. She worked different jobs to ensure that her children had what they needed.
From a very early age, ‘Foquita’ found unconditional support in her mother. Rosario accompanied him to all training sessions and games, despite the financial difficulties and fatigue that came with his multiple tasks. Her mother was not only his biggest fan, but also his biggest motivator. This constant presence and encouragement were vital for Jefferson not to give up on his dream of being a soccer player.
Jefferson began playing football in the streets of Villa El Salvador , where he quickly stood out for his skill and speed. His natural talent did not go unnoticed, and he soon joined the Cantolao Sports Academy , one of the most prestigious in the country. However, the family’s economic situation made it difficult to access adequate sports resources.
Here, again, the role of Rosario stood out, who despite the limitations, did everything possible so that her son had the necessary tools to develop as a soccer player. She bought the uniforms and paid for the registration fees with the little money she earned, always hoping that, one day, her little girl would be able to excel in the sport that he loved so much.

Today, Farfán does not forget his roots or his mother’s sacrifices. On multiple occasions he has publicly expressed his gratitude and recognition towards Rosario.
