José Ignacio Florentín, Abiel Osorio and Braian Cufré have already received house arrest. Goalkeeper Sebastián Sosa regained his freedom on Wednesday.
The four players are accused of sexually abusing a 24-year-old woman in San Miguel de Tucumán. The Vélez Board of Directors announced that it had resolved to suspend the employment contracts of the four involved and initiate an internal summary to determine the definitive measures to be adopted. “The club reiterates its deepest concern about the reported events, which are clearly contrary to the principles and values of our institution,” the Velez leadership emphasized in a statement published on its official website.
