San Lorenzo Club has received a new sanction from FIFA that has affected its sports planning. This situation is not unfamiliar to the club, which has faced similar inhibitions in the past and at times managed to lift them before they resulted in serious consequences. This time, the urgency is greater as the Colombian forward Jaime Peralta, coming from Cúcuta Deportivo, has his medical examination scheduled to sign a contract this Tuesday.
As a result of the sanction, coach Miguel Ángel Russo is limited to relying only on the incorporations of Emanuel Cecchini and Nery Domínguez, who were registered before it. This inhibition will represent a significant obstacle for future signings, compromising the club's ability to strengthen the squad in upcoming competitions.
The San Lorenzo management, which previously overcame a similar situation last August, will need to expedite efforts to resolve this conflict in order to prevent the team from missing the opportunity to add new reinforcements, including Peralta. The club's official statement announced that it will not be able to incorporate players in the next three transfer markets unless a pending debt is settled, the origin of which has not been specified.
This sanction also threatens the eligibility of Jaime Peralta, the team's latest reinforcement, who could be disqualified from competing. Although it has not been specified to whom the debt belongs, whether to a club, a player, or the solidarity mechanism, the need for management to act quickly to resolve the situation and avoid short- and medium-term complications in the club's sports strategy is emphasized, which would exacerbate the already difficult economic situation facing the institution.
