Justice is investigating the treasurer of the Argentine Football Association (AFA), Pablo Toviggino, for making 72 trips abroad between 2017 and 2025, most of them on luxury private flights costing an estimated $7 million. The investigation, which focuses on the source of funds to cover trips averaging $150,000 per flight, revealed that of the 150 recorded segments, 71% were made on executive aircraft. According to the Argentine News Agency, the investigation also focuses on the official's links to AFA's collection agent, Javier Faroni, whose company TourProdEnter is under scrutiny for alleged money laundering and the diversion of $42 million to shell companies linked to the treasurer's circle. Migration records point to Brazil, Ecuador, Spain, the United States, Paraguay, and Peru as the main destinations. The justice system questions the contradiction between Toviggino's earnings as a civil association executive and his level of expenditure. In addition, ties to the company Soma SRL, of which the treasurer was a shareholder, and the use of aircraft belonging to Baires Fly SA, a company investigated for issuing fraudulent invoices, are being analyzed. Among the aircraft used are high-end models such as the Gulfstream G450, used for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and a Bombardier Learjet 60XR owned by Listra 200 SA, a company belonging to Faroni.
