The Colón directors are finalizing details with Alberto Espínola, and there is cautious optimism that the FIFA ban will be lifted in the coming week.

In recent hours, the Sabalero has intensified efforts to reach an agreement with Alberto Espínola, an essential step to complete the formal procedures and deactivate the ban imposed on the club by FIFA.

The intention of the rojinegro management is clear: to resolve the situation during the upcoming week and put an end to a conflict that has dragged on for several weeks and has hindered any medium-term planning. Reaching an understanding with the Paraguayan defender would allow the club to regularize the case, complete the necessary paperwork, and free the club from a sanction that currently keeps its hands tied.

The strategy Colón is planning to finally lift the ban and allow all new signings to be used at the start of the tournament is as follows: deposit the amount directly into Espínola’s bank account and have the player himself notify FIFA to lift the ban.

Meanwhile, caution prevails at the club. Negotiations are progressing, but the priority is to secure a sustainable agreement that ensures compliance with the terms and avoids new conflicts.
