Federico Fattori, the midfielder loved by the Huracán fans.
When the assets of the clubs (and sometimes even the institutional life) start to be in danger, the fans are capable of moving mountains. Driven by an almost biblical faith, they ride chimeras (“Dream or illusion which is a product of the imagination and which is desired or pursued despite the fact that it is very unlikely to be realized”this is its meaning). And there are many examples. In the 90’s, a group of Temperley fan families mortgaged their homes to lift the club’s bankruptcy. In the middle of the call Racing fans have occupied a vacant lot to build an inferior property that would sell for more than a hundred million and save the club. And, if the comparison is allowed, we also mention the Cyclone fans who drove the epic of the return to Boedo. And now it’s your neighbors who want to move the library. Yes, Huracán fans go for their epic.
“Help the club buy the best 5 in the country”. With that motto, hundreds of Huracán fans have started a movement on the networks to buy the pass of what they consider the jewel of the Balloon and, for them, all Argentine football. It’s about the midfielder Federico Fattori, the heart of the team led by Dabove.
It all started with a proposal born within the board of directors of the Parque Patricios club that did not have the impact necessary to reach the amount necessary to keep the pass. So the fans burners took the bull by the horns and gave way to the creative initiative: the Bonus factors.
factors drew the attention of Parque Patricios management for his game at Ferrocarril Oeste. The player of 29 years oldlanded in Huracán last January with the mission to occupy the midfield, after the departure of Claudio Giacobbe. The negotiation has been carried out one-year loan with option to purchase four hundred thousand dollars for fifty percent of the subscription. Fans were outraged that the club failed to cover what they consider a ridiculous sum for the numbers the club runs and decided to put the money in themselves.

A move born on Twitter
The proposal appeared on social media via a fan’s personal Twitter account burner. Outraged by the partial resolution of the deal, as they were on their way to the stadium Tommaso Adolfo Duco this group has decided to launch the proposal to buy the player pass. “By selling 72,000 bonds for $ 1,000, Federico stays in fiery“quoted one of the group members in Twitter. It is worth clarifying that they may need a little more money after the dollar’s last leap, but at the time they were aiming to raise seventy-two million pesos.
“Help the club buy the top 5 in the country“, harangues the creators of Bono Fattori in the publication that has started to run on social networks and has gone viral in the world of Hurricane.
Gradually the idea that looked like a fantasy began to make sense. Fans began exchanging ideas in burning networks and forums. The majority were willing to buy the stock, and new proposals also emerged. One of them proposed to provide the contribution in two parts. In addition, another proposal that was made was that those who collaborate and buy the bonus could participate different lottery prizes ranging from shirts to official team shorts. A way to reward great action.
Now the idea is that the proposal reaches the Board of Directors from Balloon and that the club officially supports the idea. Y, As president David Garzón confirmed to Clarín, the idea of the hurricane is to hold back the player. But it was the fans who put on 10 shirts (or the 24 of Fattori) and they already feel that the chimera for him to stay in the club is no longer that dream that seemed (almost) impossible.
