San Lorenzo once again ended up at the center of attention because of a financial dispute that further complicates its delicate institutional situation. While the club leadership is working to lift the transfer bans and move forward with building the squad for 2026, Instituto de Córdoba filed a formal complaint with theArgentine Football Associationover a debt related to the sale of Malcom Braida to Boca.
The claim stems from the transfer completed in mid-2025, when the left back was sold to Xeneize for 1.8 million dollars, in a deal driven by then-coach Miguel Ángel Russo ahead of the Club World Cup. According to officials in Alta Córdoba, El Ciclón never paid Instituto the percentage that correplied to it from that deal.
San Lorenzo no pagó el porcentaje que le correspondía a Instituto por Braida
The president of La Gloria, Juan Cavagliatto, confirmed the filing with the governing body of Argentine football:""Regarding Braida, we already have the complaint filed with AFA, the date has already been set for the lawyers to meet because San Lorenzo didn't pay us the transfer that was made to Boca"," he stated.
The dispute is based on an agreement signed in January 2022, when Instituto transferred to San Lorenzo 100% of the player's federative rights and 50% of his economic rights. That contract established a co-ownership scheme to regulate future transfers. Months later, El Cuervo acquired another 20% of the registration, so the Córdoba club retained the remaining 30%.
A Instituto le correspondería el 30% del pase de Braida que no fue pagado
When the sale to Boca was completed, Instituto keeps that it should have received 30% of the total agreed amount, that is, about 540 thousand gross dollars. The institution clarified that this amount did not have to be received net, because it was necessary to deduct taxes, charges, and a bonus that Braida collected when he renewed his contract. Even so, officials emphasize that the payment was never made.
