Red Bull Bragantino put pressure on Independiente over Lomónaco | OneFootball

After being disqualified from the South American Cup, Independiente resumes activity in the Clausura Tournament 2025 against Banfield this Saturday at 16:45 hours. The good news continues not to arrive, as Red Bull Bragantino has demanded payment from Rojo for the purchase of Kevin Lomónaco.

The acquisition was agreed in three installments of 750 thousand dollars. The Avellaneda team claims to have paid half of one of them and the defender maintains that the club also disbursed 50,000 as a payment intention.

However, the management understands that it will have to pay penalties and interest, but assumes this because it has no money: it has to wait to sell players in the transfer market. The first installment is already unpaid, having expired on June 30.

In May of this year, Lomónaco agreed to his renewal with Independiente until 2028 and his termination clause was increased to 20 million dollars. The player has attracted the interest of several European clubs, although there has been no formal approach.

Rojo has its sights set on moving up from the bottom of Group B in the Clausura, as it is last with 3 points and without any victory, in addition to being out of the qualification zone for international tournaments in the annual table.

However, it received the good news that it will be able to play in the Libertadores de América – Ricardo Enrique Bochini against Taladro, after the stadium was provisionally closed due to the barbarity that occurred against Universidad de Chile.
