Argentine team scandal probes raise smariño
The U.S. authorities are investigating the Argentine Football Association's management and have detected suspicious transfers totaling nearly $40 million from the national team’s sponsorship revenues, conducted through companies and digital currency platforms in the United States and Spain. The investigation began as a civil dispute over fraud but has expanded to include money transfers related to sponsorship and commercial rights contracts, with suspicions of companies being used for money laundering and obfuscation. Additionally, authorities are examining cryptocurrency contracts with companies such as "Socius" and "Binance," and exchanging accusations regarding the roles of intermediaries and funds that were not directly transferred to official accounts. There are reports of summonses and operations at New York Airport, although internal authorities have not officially confiscated any devices. The investigations are expected to continue to determine the extent of involvement of officials and the methods used for transferring suspicious funds, with expectations that the scope of evidence and testimonies will be broadened.
