FIFA timing clashes with Colón's urgency in the Neris case | OneFootball

At Colón, there is still unfinished business with no end date in sight. The club’s leadership is waiting for a FIFA ruling in the dispute with José Neris, but the weeks go by, the months as well, and the decision that could mean a significant boost to the club’s finances still has not arrived.

The issue also has a financial component that explains much of the anticipation. Colón is claiming $1.2 million for the “unilateral and unjustified” termination of his contract. El Sabalero owned 65% of the player’s economic rights, so it believes it is entitled to compensation for his departure.

Meanwhile, Neris’ career continued down a different path, as he left Emelec of Ecuador, where he did not perform well, and sought a fresh start at Defensor Sporting of Uruguay, trying to regain prominence and relaunch his career.

Colón awaits FIFA’s ruling on Neris

On the other side is Colón, which has done its part in the case file and presented its arguments to FIFA, convinced that there is enough evidence to obtain a favorable ruling. The problem is that Colón’s needs are moving at a completely different speed. That money is being awaited with enormous interest amid a complex economic situation. But be careful, because the player could also appeal if the ruling goes against him, dragging everything out even further.

Colón has had contacts within CONMEBOL in an attempt to find some channel that would help speed up the matter. However, so far there has been no progress. The club’s leadership remains confident that the outcome will be favorable. Even so, that confidence does not remove the main concern: time. Because while FIFA analyzes the case and follows its own procedures, at Colón the urgencies are immediate. Every week that passes without a decision keeps frozen the possibility of receiving income that could be very important for the club’s current institutional situation.
