Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata has a debt of 2,865 million pesos

The report stated that the debt with the professional staff and the coaching staff amounted to 291 million pesos, of which an important part was paid but still remains to catch up. For this reason, the preseason, which was scheduled since last December 5, has not yet begun. The monthly budget of Gimnasia’s football, which includes players and coaching staff, is 90 million pesos, while the television rights received by the club are 52 million and that income in December could not be perceived, since it had been previously collected by the outgoing board of directors. On the delicate economic situation it was reported that the debt that appears with former president Gabriel Pellegrino (desisted from collecting through television rights) is 2,571,836 to official dollar and 1,769,357 to dollar MEP.La composition of the debt is 60% of loans and mutual, 20% in foreign currency by players, 10 for debts with the staff, 5 with the AFIP and 5 for suppliers and various expenses (for example 6 million to the hotel where the campus concentrated). As for the debts contracted by players, and that for several of them the club is inhibited, they are with Al-Ettifaq (for Brahian Aleman) of 330,774 dollars, Boston River (Uruguay) for Guillermo Fratta of 40 thousand dollars, Olimpia (Paraguay) for Ramón Sosa of 740,284 dollars and for the same player to Tembetary (Paraguay) of 1,054,379 and the intermediary of the arrival of Oscar Piris 300 thousand. They owe $45,000 to Santa Fe Union, $493,613 to Greece’s Olympiakos, 38,720 to the representative and 159,000 to the company that brokered the operation. To this we must add the debt with Tigre for the loan of Agustín Cardozo of 73,653 dollars. Gimnasia, in addition, was unable to sell players because money was owed to Diego Cativa, who filed a judicial appeal to claim the payment of USD 110,000 for his intermediation in the arrival of Victor Ayala. This issue was resolved and the club can now negotiate a sale. It was also highlighted that due to lack of payment the club’s employees did not have ART coverage since July and it is another of the issues that could be resolved in the first 23 days of management.
