Glamorous Olympic swimmer Luana Alonso has been REMOVED from athletes’ village as Paraguay accuses her of creating ‘unsuitable environment’

One of the Olympics’ brightest stars has been kicked out of the athletes’ official village after allegedly creating an “inappropriate environment”.

Athletes competing in the Games take up residence in the village, where competitors are allowed to mingle, train, eat and relax side by side.

However, the Paraguay team asked one of their stars to leave the village after he refused to allow them to stay until the end of the competition which officially closes on Sunday 11 August.

Swimmer Luana Alonso endured a torrid run at the Games as she finished sixth in the 100m butterfly – 0.24 seconds behind Georgia’s Ana Nizharadze – narrowly missing out on qualifying for the semi-finals of the event.

She then sensationally announced her retirement from swimming in a social media post to her nearly 500,000 Instagram followers, but has remained in Paris ever since.

The 20-year-old has since retired from swimming after finishing sixth in her only swim of the Games.

Now the Paraguayan team has removed the 20-year-old from the athletes’ village and cited Alonso’s “inappropriate behaviour” as justification for doing so as the Olympics enter their final week of competition. The statement did not explain what her inappropriate behavior was.

A statement from Larissa Schaerer, head of the COP mission, said: “Her presence creates an inappropriate atmosphere within the Paraguay team.

“We thank him for doing as instructed, as it was of his own free will that he did not spend the night in the Athletes’ Village.”

Alonso’s Instagram story suggests she has since returned to the United States, where she attends school, after posting a short video on social media showing her driving to a border crossing.

The Paraguayan already made her Olympic debut at the Tokyo Games four years ago and is among the youngest competitors to retire at the age of just 20.

Confirming his retirement last week, Alonso said: “Swimming: thank you for allowing me to dream, for teaching me to fight, to try, perseverance, sacrifice, discipline and much more.

“I gave you a part of my life and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world because I had the best experiences of my life, you gave me thousands of joys, friends from other countries that I will always carry in my heart my. , unique opportunities.

– It’s not goodbye, see you soon.
