The championship was due to restart on Feb. 5 but has been on hold because of financial problems. The union's announcement followed publication of the upcoming fixtures on the Argentine FA website (www.afa.org.ar). “The Argentine Footballers’ Union (FAA) maintains its stance of not starting the second half of the tournaments in the professional categories organised by the AFA,” the union said in a statement on its website (www.agremiados.com.ar). The AFA was set to resume competitive football after reaching an agreement last Friday on an Argentine government injection of $25 million to be shared among the clubs. The AFA is studying bids from private companies to broadcast Argentine top flight matches from next season.
