The flame of the wick that was lit Juan Sebastian Verón With his statements last weekend he doesn’t stop growing. The first was Pablo Tovigginostrong man in Argentine Football FederationWho decided to use social networks question the statements of the president of Estudiantes. And, after the Small witch will use the same means to respond to you, a national government official entered the dispute.

Regard Daniele Sciolicurrent head of the nation’s Ministry of Tourism, Environment and Sports, who wrote a light disclaimer on his X (formerly Twitter) account to reference the controversy and, incidentally, demonstrate their public support for the decree promoted by Javier Milei promote the arrival of Sports Share Companies (SAD) in Argentine football.

“The statements of the treasurer of the AFA against Juan Sebastián Verón and Andrés Fassi, president of Talleres de Córdoba, who is making a great transformation“were the first words the politician wrote.

In the next paragraph, the former Argentine ambassador to Brazil praised the president of the La Plata club. “Verón is a great leader with an impeccable career and prestige in Argentine football, with which I share the vision of the entry of private capital, as an alternative to improve the quality of the club and the lives of the members”, he added.

The text did not end here, but Scioli decided to close it by winking at the leader of La Libertad Avanza. “President @JMilei’s SAD decree has the force of law and is in force“, he concluded.

A few minutes after publication, Toviggino, Claudio Tapia’s right-hand man, chose to recall a post that the official made in 2018 on preventing the SAD from landing in local football and accompanied it with a large text.

“I would ask: ‘What have you become, Daniel?’. But since you are so converted… Perhaps it is better: ‘How much have you become?’ Are you the one who promoted a project against the SAD or the one who is now asking to approve them? Ah, I know law isn’t your strong point, so I’ll bore you. “You are indeed of pure caste!” she began.

And it continued: “Article 335 (which established the prohibition to prevent a sports organization from the right to affiliate with a confederation, federation, association, league or sports union based on its legal form) and Article 345 (which established the obligation for associations, federations and confederations to adapt their statutes to the terms of the DNU) of the DNU 70/30 – he continued – are provisionally suspended by resolution issued by the Federal Court of Mercedes on 01/30/24 and confirmed by the Federal Court of San Martin Number I, on 4/4/24″.

“Consequently, currently, the SAD will be able to join the AFA if and only if our members decide to reform and adapt the statutes of the AFA for this purpose, since today Only non-profit civil associations can join the AFA.the Decree in this sense being suspended and not in force”, he concluded.

The cross between Pablo Toviggino and Juan Sebastián Verón

Juan Sebastián Verón reignited the debate last week by talking about the project he dreams of for his new Estudiantes after assuming the presidency. He assured that he is looking for a hybrid club, where there are capital injections but which continues to be managed as a non-profit entity.

“I’m not talking about foreign capital, but about capital that helps the club,” he said in a note to Clarín, and he was also forceful: “No one will buy Estudiantes”. However, the AFA treasurer came out to cross it in X.

“Ahah, you and another who lives more in Mexico than in Argentina, are the mules of an idea foreign to you.Don’t forget that you need the VOTES OF THE AFA ASSEMBLY! The DNU that obliges us no longer exists. When the project that the AFA is preparing becomes known, they will both be left with their asses in the air”, declared the manager who also beat up, without naming him, Andrés Fassi, now boss of Talleres, who has a relationship with the Mexican . soccer.

Hours later, the Small witch He decided not to remain silent and, without mentioning Toviggino, responded with a series of sentences that he published in an Instagram story. “We need to change the way clubs are run to create that connection between public and private and that we all win. Clubs can no longer grow by their own means. “I’m on the road to bankruptcy,” Verón began.

Then, the Estudiantes idol continued to explain his idea: “Football must seduce these capitals and show the business streak to grow.”. If in that private business and society go hand in hand, what’s the problem?“.

Through the post, the president of León listed some of the results obtained during his management within the framework of this idea. “We built the stadium thanks to private capital. We must offer more alternatives without this meaning selling the club. That a private individual comes to carry out an activity at the service of the Club does not mean making a SAD”, he said.

And he closed with a reflection: “The private sector must approach football because football is popular. Because it is part of our culture. Because we must transform lives. It must help us do it.” Transform, improve the quality of the club, which has a direct impact on the life of the memberof the athlete, of the employee, of those who live in society every day”.
