🚨AFA set to step in at San Lorenzo | OneFootball

The political and institutional crisis at San Lorenzo de Almagro has escalated to an unprecedented level. After a tense meeting between the club’s management and the president of the AFA, Claudio "Chiqui" Tapia, the governing body of Argentine football decided that it could intervene in the azulgrana club through a Normalization Committee.

AFA’s Ultimatum to Moretti

The drastic measure would be applied if the current president of San Lorenzo, Marcelo Moretti, fails to meet two crucial conditions. First, the convening of the Board of Directors meeting, as ordered by a court ruling, and second, if such a meeting is held, that no internal agreement is reached.

The conclave, held in Ezeiza, served for the AFA to emphasize that Moretti must comply with the Statute. If the leadership vacuum is not resolved or the formation of a new Board of Directors is not achieved by consensus, the AFA could appoint a temporary management or an overseer, just as FIFA does in its affiliated federations.

The potential intervention seeks to normalize the institutional situation at San Lorenzo, which is experiencing moments of political uncertainty on the eve of the tournament’s conclusion.
