San Lorenzo in a state of power vacuum after majority of board resigns

San Lorenzo declared its state of acephaly this Tuesday, after a meeting of the Board of Directors, the majority of its members resigned from their posts. According to the club in an official statement, the directors who ratified their resignation were Andrés Terzano, Martín Cigna, Leandro Goroyesky, Carina Farías, Mateo Sagardoy, Uriel Barros, María Soledad Boufflet, Pablo García Lago, Javier Allievi, Marcelo Culotta, Belén Lugones, Leonardo Virardi and Agustina Nordenstrom, in addition to the alternate director Mariano Marino. 'Upon confirmation of the configuration of the state of acephaly of the Board of Directors, the Presidency of the Club's Assembly of Representatives was entrusted with the urgent calling of an extraordinary meeting so that they can take over temporarily and, within the next 48 hours, convene the full body of the Assembly of Representatives for the purpose of appointing an Transitional Commission,' the institution explained. Not content to resign or take a leave of absence, Moretti refused to sign the document to begin the new institutional process, and played the victim by assuring that they want to 'stage a coup to take control of San Lorenzo.' 'We will challenge the minutes that supposedly decreed the acephaly, because it has a lot of flaws and there are issues that unfortunately continue to be done wrong at the club. No one suggested Sur Finanzas to me. That damaged my image and a false narrative was built,' he denounced. In addition, he gave his version of the relationship between El Ciclón and the financial firm Sur Finanzas, the company that sponsored several clubs and gave its name to the Professional League tournament, and is being investigated by the Justice for alleged money laundering. 'We found a club totally destroyed and with a huge and unmanageable debt. That's why we went out to ask for loans. 'San Lorenzo did not receive money. I have no doubts that I am completely innocent. The acephaly was not properly decreed,' Moretti assured in statements to TN. Precisely, the president accused of 'fraudulent administration' was one of those who did not present his resignation, along with Néstor Ortigoza, Alan Navarro, Emiliano Rodríguez, Sergio Costantino, Alejandro Tamer and Cristian Evangelista. On the other hand, the official also referred to the hidden camera that became known months ago, where he allegedly received a bribe to sign a youth player. 'The video is in the file of the case.'
