Embargo for $375,000: Unión caught in legal battle over Ignacio Malcorra | OneFootball

Unión must pay a millionaire sum to the footballer's agent due to a debt from his transfer to Mexico. Meanwhile, Aldosivi and Squalo S.A. must also handle a contractual debt with Sergio Levinton.

El Tatengue is in the eye of the storm due to a legal dispute with Sergio Fabián Levinton, the agent of footballer Ignacio "Nacho" Malcorra. The club must pay a millionaire sum for the player's transfer to Mexico.

The Civil and Commercial Court No. 14 of Mar del Plata ordered Aldosivi and the firm Squalo S.A. to jointly pay U$S 40,000 to Levinton for breaches in an economic rights transfer contract signed in 2012. However, the focus is on Unión de Santa Fe, as the Santa Fe club must pay the agent U$S 375,000 for Malcorra's transfer to Tijuana, Mexico, plus interest.

The dispute originated from the transfer of 50% of the player's economic rights by Levinton to the Mar del Plata club and Squalo S.A., an agreement for which a payment of U$S 60,000 in six installments was agreed. Since only two were paid, the judge determined that Aldosivi and Squalo S.A. must pay the remaining U$S 40,000, plus interest.

Unión de Santa Fe appealed the decision, and the club's bank accounts are frozen until the judicial situation is resolved.
