The transfer of Adrián Balboa to Russian football brings news for Santa Fe. Racing finalized the sale of the striker to Pari Nizhniy Novgorod, a deal that Unión had been closely following as they own 20% of his economic rights.

The numbers of the deal

The transfer for the entirety of his rights was closed at an amount close to one million dollars. Under these conditions, “Tate” is entitled to about 200,000 dollars. The point yet to be determined is whether this amount will be received gross or “net,” as tax deductions could reduce the final figure that reaches the club’s coffers.

Payment terms and context

Informally, it has emerged that the payment would be made in four installments, although official confirmation of the final terms is still awaited. While it is not an amount that will drastically change the budget, Unión’s management values the income as a much-needed financial relief given the current economic context.

End of an era

Balboa has already said goodbye to the Academy and is preparing for his trip to join his new team in Russia. With this move, an administrative matter that Unión had been monitoring for some time comes to a close, turning a sporting right into a tangible economic benefit.
