San Lorenzo in crisis: what’s next for the club after being left leaderless | OneFootball

After the club was left leaderless, the president of the Assembly, Daniel Roberto Matos, will now call an extraordinary meeting to define the new board of directors.

With the vacancy at San Lorenzo already declared after the mass resignations that were approved on Tuesday at the meeting, it is now expected that the president of the Assembly, Daniel Roberto Matos, will call an extraordinary meeting to determine the next steps. What will happen to the future of the club?

Initially, at that summit, a vote will be held to define the new transitional board of directors. Lists will be presented and submitted to a vote by the 90 assembly members. If only one list is presented, it must still be approved by the majority. Those who win will lead the club for the period determined by the assembly. Sergio Constantino, who did not resign from the board and had run in the elections won by Moretti, is one of those who could put together his own list.

Once that is resolved, two paths will open: either that leadership completes Moretti’s term until 2027, or early elections are called within 60, 90, or 120 days—the latter is the most likely option, although it will be confirmed at a members’ assembly.

Martín Cigna, the club’s general secretary, explained it in detail during the press conference he gave yesterday: “It is my duty to inform the assembly and they will decide the next steps; I cannot set a path because the assembly should not be influenced.”

An important point to consider is that whoever presides over the transitional government must be someone who has not resigned from the Board of Directors, so the following will be excluded: Julio Lopardo (who served as president during Moretti’s leave), Andrés Terzano (first vice president), Uriel Barros (assistant secretary), Leandro Goroyesky (treasurer), María Soledad Boufflet (board member), Juan Sagardoy (manager), Pablo García Lago (board member), Belén Lugones (board member), Marcelo Culotta (board member), Agustina Nordenstrom (board member), Leonardo Virardi (board member), and Cigna.

Now, the different political sectors that are part of the club will vie for their perspective. César Francis, from the group Volver a San Lorenzo, proposed a specific date for the elections on X: “No more patchwork or ghost trains. Only VOTING will work. That’s why we demand EARLY ELECTIONS ON DECEMBER 21.”

The coming hours will be key to knowing how the political reconstruction of the Ciclón continues, which has been in free fall since that hidden camera emerged showing Marcelo Moretti allegedly receiving a bribe to sign a youth player. Now, despite his return to San Lorenzo after his leave ended, his term has come to an end.
