Lerche slams Colón board over Espínola debt: "Smoke clouds future" | OneFootball

The former president of Colón, Germán Lerche, once again set social media ablaze by using his X account (formerly Twitter) to launch a scathing critique against the current “rojinegra” leadership.

The focus of his criticism is the alleged management of a bank loan to settle the debt with Paraguayan footballer Alberto Espínola, whose sanction by FIFA remains in effect and continues to complicate the club’s finances.

With marked irony, Lerche wrote:

The post had a strong impact among the “sabalero” fans. Minutes later, Lerche followed up with a humorous tone: “Sorry, typo: it’s ‘flare.’ And be careful with all the smoke, Racing just had their stadium suspended.”

The debate over the delicate financial situation

The words of the former president once again bring the delicate economic situation of Colón to center stage, as the club tries to resolve sanctions and balance its accounts just days before the elections, set for November 30. In a political and sporting climate fraught with tension, Lerche’s statements reignite old disputes just as the institution urgently seeks stability.
