Independiente had a turning point: the millionaire trial of Gonzalo Verón was brought to the Supreme Court of Buenos Aires

Independiente celebrated again this Monday. It came from the heartbreaking 2-1 against Tigre, who made a loud noise on Saturday with that goal by Martin Cauteruccio at the last minute he had to wait for the approval of the VAR. And now all’Avellaneda have clenched their fists to celebrate what they consider another victory, but it’s on the desks. era Accepted the appeal presented by the lawyers of the Red Army for the millionaire trial which continues Gonzalo Verona and the case was taken to the Supreme Court of the Province of Buenos Aires.

It was the news that the leaders of Independiente were waiting for, with Nestore Grindetti to the head. “The Labor Court No. 2 of Avellaneda has resolved to declare admissible the extraordinary appeals presented by the Club Atlético Independiente and, consequently, to refer these actions to the Supreme Court of Justice”they reported from the Avellaneda institution.

On the part of the player, currently at the San Martín de Porres University in Peru, they had already filed an appeal claiming that they were not satisfied with the sentence issued in the first instance since they were demanding a higher figure.

Verón’s matches with the red shirt were 18 but his signing in 2018 generated a debt which, according to the first court ruling, forced Independiente to pay a total of 2,332,081,796.01 pesos, approximately 10 million dollars at the official exchange rate this Monday (1 dollar = 240 pesos).

For the moment the Devil will not have to pay anything and everything will be subject to what the Supreme Court defines, a process that can take a long time. What the lawyers of Independiente will ask is the annulment of the notification of the complaint since it is doubtful that the refusal of a letter of document in autonomy will be considered in absentia in a work file.

It should be remembered that Verón sent the telegram to the club headquarters in mid-2020 and it has not been received. The previous leadership, led by Hugo Moyano, claimed it was closed due to the strict quarantine in force in the country.

If that notification is annulled, the trial should start over, with another sentence. Otherwise, the concepts of fees, rates and interest dictated by the Court will be re-evaluated.

At the same time that the current leadership of El Rojo was preparing this appeal, which was successful, it launched a criminal case against the previous leaders, against Verón himself, his lawyer and his representative, Nazareno Marcollese.

It’s a reprieve for a financially troubled independent. This is a historic process due to its exorbitant value, which could jeopardize the institutional nature of the club. That’s why this news was celebrated as much or more than Caute’s great goal in stoppage time.
