Strong protest at Unión: opposition seeks urgent review commission action | OneFootball

The institutional and financial situation of Unión added a new chapter this Thursday after the opposition group Encuentro Unionista submitted a note to the Accounts Review Commission demanding its intervention and the exercise of its oversight powers.

The request was filed under No. 433401 at 8:45 a.m., after the Board of Directors failed to respond to an initial request for information submitted on July 22.

According to documentation from the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) attached by the group to the filing, the club has allegedly accumulated 44 bounced checks totaling $700,067,887.83. Of that total, $61,935,066.94, equivalent to 8.85%, has reportedly been paid or regularized.

In addition, between August 25 and 27, another 21 checks were allegedly rejected due to insufficient funds. As a result, the amount reported by the opposition would have risen from the $658.3 million reported in July to more than $700 million.

The documentation also indicates a total debt reported in the financial system of $1,840,315,000, corresponding to July 2026, while Banco Macro allegedly classified the club as being in Situation 2, under special monitoring.

Request for information about the directors

One of the central points of the filing is related to possible transfers of club funds to members of the Board of Directors.

Encuentro Unionista requested that the Accounts Review Commission determine whether there were payments, withdrawals, advances, reimbursements, travel allowances, fees, compensation, or loans in favor of the president or other directors.

The group also requested that the supporting documentation for those transactions be analyzed and that the movements be cross-checked against the institution’s minute books.

They demand answers within ten days

The opposition members also questioned the alleged failure to publish the Quarterly Cash Balance, as provided for in Article 65, subsection g, of the Bylaws.

Finally, they set a deadline of ten calendar days to receive a formal response from the Accounts Review Commission regarding the actions taken.

In the filing, Encuentro Unionista recalled that, according to Article 84 of the Bylaws, the Review Commission has the authority to request the calling of an Extraordinary General Assembly when it considers it necessary to safeguard Unión’s assets.

It should be clarified that the data and allegations mentioned correspond to the filing made by the opposition group and must be analyzed and, if necessary, answered by the authorities of Club Atlético Unión.
