Brian Negro set to agree Colón exit deal next | OneFootball

The leaders of Colón are reportedly on the verge of terminating the contract of another player, who would be the seventh, as part of the cleansing plan ahead of the elections.

Colón is going through decisive hours regarding contracts, in the midst of a deep sports and economic restructuring just days before Sunday’s elections. In this context, Brian Negro is about to become the seventh footballer to terminate his contract with the club, following the already confirmed departures of Joel Soñora, José Barreto, Marcos Díaz, Cristian García, Federico Jourdan, and Facundo Sánchez.

Brian Negro’s time at Colón

Negro, a 26-year-old defender, joined the club at the beginning of the season from Tristán Suárez. He played an active role during the Primera Nacional championship, where he played 20 matches, accumulating 1,656 minutes and scoring one goal.

He was also a starter and played the full 90 minutes in the Copa Argentina elimination, where the Sabalero lost on penalties after a 0-0 draw in regulation time.

His departure comes in a complex scenario, where the management is seeking to reduce the number of active contracts to a minimum before the transfer of power, scheduled for Monday the 1st, after the elections. The main objective is to lighten the salary structure and facilitate the start of preseason, which largely depends on securing resources to pay the outstanding wages.

How the squad cleansing plan will continue

At this time, efforts are also focused on other contract terminations that could be finalized at the last minute, among which are the names of Oscar Garrido and Emmanuel Gigliotti, among others. The intention is to leave the club with the lowest possible financial burden and allow the new board of directors to make decisions with operational flexibility.

Meanwhile, the current administration is working to secure funds to pay the squad for the month of August, a fundamental requirement to avoid jeopardizing the start of preseason training.

The institutional transition sets the pace for these negotiations. While Colón awaits its political future, contractual restructuring has become an urgent priority, with the aim of paving the way for the new era that will inevitably begin once the members cast their votes at the polls.
