Madelón swings axe: Solari, Fragapane out, train apart | OneFootball

Augusto Solari and Franco Fragapane were removed from Unión’s first-team squad and are already training separately while the club’s management looks to sort out their departures. Leonardo Madelón told them they will not be part of his plans for the second half of the year, a decision that adds to that of Enzo Roldán and Franco Ratotti, who were demoted to the reserve team.

This complex sporting situation is unfolding in a tense atmosphere, as the squad decided to suspend double training sessions until the club’s management settles the outstanding salary debts. Adding to the players’ protest is the suffocating financial situation the red-and-white institution is going through, hit by a claim from Atlético Tucumán, which obtained a seizure order over unpaid installments related to the transfer of Marcelo Estigarribia.

To make matters worse, Unión has still not been able to collect the money it is owed from the sale of Juan Nardoni to Racing, income that had been expected to help balance the books. The club’s management is hopeful that the financial situation will start to ease once the first payment from Rafael Profini’s transfer comes in, while Madelón begins shaping a new team amid too many open fronts.
