Over 3,500 lower division Argentine football clubs (yes, there are that many), yesterday sent a letter to FIFA President Gianni Infantino denouncing important “irregularities” committed by the “normalizing committee” currently administering the Argentine Football Association (AFA) and requesting he “take matters into his hands so as to make sure they do what they were appointed to.” First division clubs didn’t sign the letter. Before looking into why these clubs are upset, let’s recap a bit to remember what this normalizing committee is and how AFA got to its current state of chaos. The judge also found enough evidence to determine that several representatives from football clubs were also embezzling part of the money they did get in FPT TV rights. However, it seems that clubs, especially lower division ones, are less than happy with the way the committee is running the association and warned they will not play in the Argentine football tournament next Friday if things don’t change. I read the other day that they were already fighting, that they actually had a fist fight and one of the committee’s member got kicked in the head,” she added.
