Deportivo Cali They are experiencing one of their most complex years in terms of team performance, more so in terms of administration, since they are having an economic crisis and in addition to that they are fighting relegation in the League. However, the problems do not end there, as a new mess of money arose.
The sugar company is restructuring its team and some managers have left after the terrible first semester. In addition, they were encouraged to invest in Hernán Torres to achieve the goal of saving the category.
However, when everything seemed to be going well for the next tournament, it was announced that, after 11 years, Deportivo Cali will have to pay a sum of 600 thousand dollars to Atlético Nacional for a player.
The footballer involved is Luis Fernando Mosquera, who was transferred from purslane to sugar in the 2013 season and as revealed by journalist Julián Capera on ESPN, andThe club risks not being able to register players.
“TOtlético Nacional has been insisting for 11 years that Deportivo Cali pay it the money corresponding to 60% of the player’s sports rights, a figure close to 600 thousand dollars. The club took the situation to Dimayor, that took six years, but then they went to the dispute chamber of the Colombian Football Federation, which ratified Dimayor’s ruling, by regulation it cannot go to the TAS and Cali must pay Nacional.” , explained Julián Capera.
Possible solution for Cali in the face of that debt
After this complex situation that Cali faces due to the signing of Luis Fernando ‘Mosco’ Mosquera, the club will also have to pay interest that may exceed the figure described above, being obliged to cancel it if it does not want to be affected in the incorporation of players.
The only and easiest solution is to cancel the total value, but after the economic crisis that Cali is experiencing, the other thing that the club can achieve is to reach an agreement with Atlético Nacional to give it deadlines to pay the debt and the purslane, it must issue a peace of mind that will be delivered to Dimayor and FCF, allowing them to register players but if that document is not delivered, the sugar producers will have to face the tournament with what they have available.
