The atmosphere a few hours before playing the last classic of the year was far from ideal in a San Lorenzo that cannot stick its nose out to get a little oxygen amid so much internal crisis. Although president Marcelo Moretti was able to get more time to try to resolve the salary arrears with a large part of the professional team, there was a footballer considered by Miguel Angel Russo who decided to slam the door after an agreement with the leadership.
This is Francisco Fydriszewski, who began to miss training sessions this Tuesday as a sign of protest for the debt they owe him. The forward turned to Futbolistas Argentinos Agremiados for advice and to seek his freedom.
He did it this Wednesday afternoon. Finally he separated by mutual agreement with the Boedo club after managing to shake hands to arrange the payment of what was claimed. The Pole had arrived this year from the hand of Moretti with the pass in his possession after a conflict with Barcelona of Ecuador, which maintains a claim in FIFA against the player and against San Lorenzo for sheltering him.
With the blue and red shirt, Fydriszewski only added 91 minutes as a result of four appearances from the substitutes’ bench. He did not score goals and earned anger from his own fans by trying to take a penalty and missing it against Godoy Cruz. From there, he was disapproved every time the voice of the Nuevo Gasómetro stadium mentioned him.
However, for Russo he was a capable striker and his plans were to retain him. In fact, despite the episode of the fateful penalty, coach Cuervo had been taking him between the relays and had planned to include him in the list of concentrates to go to the Monumental. Now, Miguelo was left without an offensive variant thinking about 2025.
Apart from resolving the Polaco issue, Moretti and company are also trying to reach an agreement with Sebastián Blanco, who also went through Agremiados to seek payment, although in his case he will remain in the Ciclón until his contract ends on December 31.
What still has no resolution is the salary arrears that produced a large debt with part of the professional team. The president asked the leaders for a week to try to get the money and they granted it. This story is not over yet.
