Belgrano won't take up the option on Cardozo, but Unión stand firm | OneFootball

What seemed imminent was not. After Belgrano were crowned champions, everyone was saying that the Pirata would exercise the option to buy Thiago Cardozo’s transfer rights, bearing in mind that Unión owns 65%.

For that reason, Unión’s management remained attentive to the issue, since the deadline for Belgrano to exercise the purchase option was June 30.

Belgrano will not exercise the option for Cardozo

In the end, that did not happen, nor will it, because although there is still a week left before the deadline expires, it is known that Belgrano will not pay $1.2 million to keep the Uruguayan goalkeeper.

The only offer made by Pirata president Luis Artime was $300,000, plus the cancellation of a $200,000 debt that Unión still owes for Agustín Colazo’s transfer.

Therefore, the gap is wide and, in addition, after transferring Rafael Profini, the Tate no longer has the same financial urgency it did a few weeks ago and is remaining calm.

Consequently, Unión will not move from the set option and wants Belgrano to pay $1.2 million for the goalkeeper’s registration, who will in any case remain with the Pirata until December, when the loan ends.
