Argentinian fans outraged by Rodrigo De Paul.

The 2026 World Cup is just days away, but De Paul is already frustrating Argentinian fans with his somewhat dismissive attitude ahead of the biggest football event on the planet.

Will De Paul be able to maintain the form he showed at the 2022 World Cup?

Midfielder Rodrigo De Paul is becoming the focus of controversy on social media after appearing in a video showing him using an e-cigarette at a Tini concert in Peru.

According to circulating images, De Paul appeared to be trying to avoid attention before vaping while watching the show. The incident quickly attracted attention from Argentinian fans, especially with the 2026 World Cup just days away.

Many fans expressed disappointment because De Paul is one of the key players for the Argentine national team. Numerous opinions suggested that players need to maintain a professional image and avoid potentially controversial actions during the preparation for the world's biggest tournament.

The image of the Argentinian star was captured by a fan and shared on Twitter.

However, alongside the criticism, a segment of fans viewed the incident more leniently. They argued that this was a personal activity off the field and there was no evidence to suggest that the action affected the 32-year-old midfielder's fitness or preparation.

On Argentinian football forums, many comments also recalled the familiar image of De Paul and his teammates whenever they entered major tournaments. Despite frequently facing pressure and controversies off the field, Argentinian players have often shown a fierce fighting spirit and high determination when wearing the national team jersey.

To date, De Paul has not responded to the circulating video. The Argentinian midfielder is still expected to play a crucial role in the midfield as the South American team embarks on their journey to defend their title at the 2026 World Cup.
