Newell's Begin Preseason as FIFA Ban Freezes Transfers

A FIFA registration inhibition prevents the club from formalizing signings and forces reliance on the current core while preparing for the Clausura.

Los pibes de Newell\'s terminaron cuartos en el grupo B y tendrán un duro examen.
Newell\'s fue competitivo durante los 90\', pero declino en el tiempo suplementario.
Ese encuentro terminó con victoria “leprosa” por 2 a 0, con tantos de los juveniles Francisco Scarpeccio y Jerónimo Gómez Mattar, ambos marcados en la primera etapa.
Walter Mazzantti, uno de los pocos que cumplió en el primer semestre en Newell\'s, sería titular.

Overview

  • Newell's opened formal preseason with closed-door friendlies at the Estadio Marcelo Bielsa, where the starters drew 1-1 and the substitutes won 2-0 in matches played on Saturday.
  • The club remains under a FIFA inhibition that stops official player registrations and therefore blocks any completed incoming transfers until the issue is resolved.
  • Reports say talks for centre-back Lautaro Gianetti are advanced but cannot be formalized because of the registration freeze reported by the club.
  • Newell's has seen short-term squad attrition and availability problems, with Franco García and Gabriel Risso Patrón gone, Fabián Noguera leaving when his contract expires, a muscle issue for Oscar Salomón, and Saúl Salcedo receiving medical care after a road crash.
  • The reserves were eliminated from the Torneo Proyección in extra time on Sunday, the first-team will travel to a training camp in Cardales on July 3 with friendlies scheduled on July 4, 8 and 11, and the club's inability to sign reinforcements raises depth and tactical-risk questions ahead of the Clausura.
