That a person or group has several teams is not new, but they are looking to avoid it in the new Statutes of the FESFUT. Here is the present of multipropiety
In current football, the figure of multipropiety is no surprise, since there are worldwide groups that have several teams and that do not hide the link that unites them at the business level.
Salvadoran football is no exception, at least in ALIANCE FC and CD Águilawhere the involvement of Adolfo Salume Arteñano, Popularly known as “Fito” Salume, he has been recognized even by him at the time, although clarifying the degree of participation.
FC Alliance will insist on the nationalization of Michell Mercado
To start with the concepts, FIFA gives a definition of multipropiety, within the framework of the Club World Cup. In article 10 of said regulation ensures that “No participating club can possess actions, influence the administration or directly or indirectly control another team in the same competition”which ended up taking out the lion of the World Tournament.
There are worldwide groups with several clubs under their command, but there is also multiprophity in leagues, such as the case of the Mexican, where Grupo Pachuca has the Pachuca and León, the hot group has Xolos from Tijuana and the White roosters, Orlegi Sports is with Santos and Atlas and TV Azteca is the owner of Puebla and Mazatlán.
Proposal to regulate
There is currently a proposal of Statutes of the FESFUT, which has a specific article on this subject, 23, where it is said that: “No natural or legal person, including matrices, subsidiaries, controlling companies, major shareholders, employees, testaferros or any other entity with decision -making capacity, may manage, manage, administer, finance or influence, directly or indirectly, directly or indirectly. of clubs affiliated with the fesfut “.
He even adds that “any mechanism is prohibited that, by interposing people or entities, intends to simulate compliance with this provision. Any economic, legal, structural or management bond that may compromise the independence of clubs affiliated with the FESFUT is expressly prohibited.”
FC Alliance, CD Eagle and 11 Deportivo (now CD Hercules) They share their main sponsors, a restaurant and a brand of soda, the latter is even the one that gives the commercial name to the First Division and both are part of the companies where Salume is the owner.
“Each team has a Board of Directors, a coaching staff, which have no indication more than giving the best possible result. Personally, the only involvement in sports issues I have in alliance”Said Salume to El Diario today three years ago, about how his participation in national football was.
First proposed adjustments
On July 12, it will be the Ordinary Congress of the General Soccer Assembly, where the approval of the new Statutes of the FESFUT would have to be given, which will give way to the new Executive Committee of the entity.
Prior to that, the current FESFUT regularization committee presented the proposal of statutes to all its members, which they had until May 15 to show the committee its possible observations. At least, the First Division made its main adjustment proposal public, oriented to the scope of multipropiety in these statutes.
“We see the very aggressive article, I understand that you want to talk about the subject, FIFA defines it clearly, they are clarifications that will go in the observations. There is even sponsorships, if we are talking about a company, which is free market, you can sponsor the teams you want. If we leave it as it is, even a sponsor of the greats, such as the television, it can be affected,” said the president of the First Division, Samuel Gál Gál.
“As an example, a prestigious company can have 4 or 5 teams that he wants his brand to take it, according to how the article can be written,” “he added.
That same day, the president of Alianza FC, Gonzalo Sibrián in that conference expanded, who said that “the Multipropiety Law must be general, not specific, if X sponsor cannot sponsor more than one team, that affects all the teams of the League, (we expect) that the Fesfut is based on multiproper as FIFA does,” he explained.
On May 23, Gálvez expanded on the subject and said that these three teams despite the sharing sponsors of the same business group, “each team is a different society. In the case of Mexico the two teams were part of the same group (by the sanction to León of the Club World Cup).”
