“They sent us a fake transfer certificate”

Matías Reali debuted in San Lorenzo on this Wednesday afternoon in the first friendly that the Boedo team played in the preseason of Uruguay. The 27-year-old winger was a starter, although he could not gravitate in the 2-0 defeat against Progress for the Río de la Plata Series Winter Challenge. But, as soon as that match was over, almost at the same time that the footballer was speaking to the press, wiping off the perspiration from his first performance in his new club, A bomb exploded involving his transfer from Independiente Rivadavia de Mendoza to Ciclón.

Daniel Vilapresident of the Cuyo institution, made a strong complaint against San Lorenzo: “They sent us a fraudulent transfer certificate. The money they said they had sent was never credited”the businessman shot in Radio La Red.

“San Lorenzo scammed us. The operation is down.”Vila explained in a very serious accusation against the entity chaired by Marcelo Moretti. Reali had become the first reinforcement of Leandro Romagnoli’s team last week.

The negotiation took several days but ended up closing in 1.8 million dollars in total. However, it took a few days to become official since Independiente Rivadavia did not authorize the pass until a first payment of one million dollars was made.

From Cuyo they gave a thumbs up once they announced in San Lorenzo that they had transferred the money, with the collaboration of an external business group. And so Reali, who had already undergone a medical check-up, was able to sign his contract. and begin training under the orders of Pipi.

“On Monday we went to the bank to see if the transfer had been credited and it wasn’t there, and it wasn’t there on Tuesday either. Today (Wednesday) he was the vice president. “He went to the bank personally, spoke to the manager and told him that not only was the transfer not credited, but that the account from which the alleged transfer had been made was a non-existent account.”explained Villa.

And he warned that he had already made a complaint about it: “We first proceeded to terminate the contract with San Lorenzo, to notify the player that he had to be present tomorrow in Córdoba in the Independiente Rivadavia preseason. We also notified AFA and We filed the complaint because we were defrauded in our good faith.“.

The forward has already played his first game and everything. However, Vila claims that from this Thursday the footballer should rejoin the Mendoza team since it declares the transfer null and void in a truly unusual event.

“Personally, I was happy, but it was not the result we wanted. The focus is general, to have a good preseason. I feel comfortable playing on both the right and the left. It makes no difference to me. This time I played on the left, “Wherever the coaching staff decides I will be fine.”Reali declared as soon as the friendly match ended with defeat in front of the cameras without knowing everything that would happen minutes later.

Does your pass to San Lorenzo fall? For the moment, the Boedo club did not come out to clarify what happened.

It was not a good start to the preseason for Leandro Romagnoli’s San Lorenzo in Uruguayan soil. In the Winter Challenge for the Río de la Plata Series, Ciclón lost 2-0 to Progreso with a totally alternative formation that featured the debut of Matias Reali, brand new reinforcement. The big absentee was Cristian Ferreira, who will not be taken into account by Pipi and stayed in Buenos Aires.

The midfielder that is on loan from River and who at some point was included as a bargaining chip in the negotiation between the clubs for Adam Bareiro, will no longer play in San Lorenzo since he lost the coach’s consideration. The leadership is looking for a way to terminate his contract that expires at the end of the year to return it to Núñez.

The one who did play was Reali, the winger from Independiente Rivadavia de Mendoza for whom Ciclón paid 1.8 million dollars. Romagnoli included him from the start in a substitute formation that had Lautaro López Kaleniuk; Nahuel Arias, Gonzalo Luján, Daniel Herrera, Elías Báez; Tomás Porra, Elián Irala; Ezequiel Cerutti, Iván Tapia, Reali; and Diego Herazo.

Reali moved to the left of the attack and tried a shot from outside. He seemed active, although very alone. He lacked a partner. The Colombian Herazo had the clearest chance of Boedo’s team in the first half but he finished weakly.

After the changes (seven per side were allowed) the duel began to become distorted and Progreso took advantage of the inattention of a Ciclón defense that was left disorganized. Horacio Sequeira and Agustín Moreira scored the goals of the victory in the complement.

Now, San Lorenzo will face Peñarol on Tuesday which comes in its second and last preparation commitment for the return of the official competition. Romagnoli would put a starting team there.
