Fans of Progresso FC

I, Latrell Middleton, would like to sincerely apologize to the public, to animal lovers, to the fans of Progresso FC, and to the wider football community for my actions during Saturday night’s match.

I deeply regret what happened. My actions were wrong and do not reflect who I am as a person or the values I stand for. I understand that there is no excuse for harming an animal, and I want to make it absolutely clear that I do not support or condone animal cruelty in any form.

In the heat of the moment, I made a decision that I now truly regret. Seeing the reaction from the public has made me reflect deeply, and I take full responsibility for my behavior. I am committed to learning from this incident and ensuring that it never happens again.

I apologize to my teammates, my club Progresso FC, the match officials, and the fans who look up to me. I also apologize to anyone who was hurt, disappointed, or offended by my actions.

I pledge to conduct myself with greater awareness, discipline, and respect, both on and off the field.

Once again, I am truly sorry.
