Possibility for Cucuta to return to professionalism without going through a second division

The criticisms of the director of the major division of professional football in Colombia do not stop: the soccer break due to the legislative elections in Colombia from 2022 to 2026 considered management problems after the opening of the second division final with two clubs already promoted in the BetPlay Dimmayor League 2022 (Union of Magdalena and Cortulua).

The issue of Colombia's soccer governing body came to light when former journalist Iván Mejía complained that investigations against Llaneros FC were closed in Di Mallorca due to the immobilization of Union Magdalena, which adversely affected Fortaleza's publicity (CEIF). Fernando Jaramillo Giraldo has resigned in case Cucuta returns to national soccer.

Well, precisely in the environment of the Motilón team, they say that the team (today president José Augusto Cadena) will return to the top category of Colombian soccer next season.

In the northern capital of Santander, they believe that the BetPlay tournament team has returned to the first division without the clubs having to fight for promotion, as they traditionally did. However, the club group that decides to vote for the future of the Cucuteño team will not be happy about this situation.

However, the decision to send Cucuta back to A depends directly on the votes of the other 35 clubs that make up the organization. From the start, Cucuta Deportivo will win 16 votes in the decisive congress of Dimayor.

There is a historic Colombian professional soccer club that belongs to the second category and that does not see the return of the North Santander team to Fair A without the merit of the sport.

However, it should be remembered that Cucuta played his last professional match at the Alberto Grisales Stadium against Rio Negro Aguilas on the 18th of the 2020 BetPlay League on November 6, 2020.

After that, the team left the championship, and Dimayor immediately withdrew in the face of economic bankruptcy and debts. The superintendent general sent the club back from the company reorganization process to the liquidation process.

The discussion about the new Cucuta category is open and, in this way, everything will be resolved at the General Assembly on Thursday, March 16, and this decision will finally be known to give a definitive answer to the future of Cucuta Deportivo, a club that has not changed records. Dimayor moved to Barrancabermeja in Alianza Petrolera, but without having to recover what he already had in the border town, paying for his duty and running it from the General Santander Stadium instead of appealing It would be.

At the same time, fans of the teams that have lost their sports recognition by the Colombian Ministry of Sports hope to return to the official match regardless of their category, because historically, the city has always supported the team and is one of the best soccer venues in the United States.The team won the with D.T. Jorge Luis Pinto in 2006 and won the semifinalist at the Copa Libertadores in 2007 with coach Jorge Luis Bernal.
