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

Criticism of the Director of the Major Division of Professional Football in Colombia does not stop: a break in football due to the Colombian legislative elections from 2022 to 2026 provided for problems management after the opening of the second division final with two clubs already transferred to BetPlay Dimmmayor League 2022 (Union Magdalena and Kortulua).

The Colombian governing body of football was covered when former journalist Iván Mejia complained that investigations against FC Llaneros were being closed in Di Mallorca due to the immobilization of the Union Magdalena, which caused damage to the publicity of Fortaleza (CEIF). Fernando Jaramillo Giraldo resigned in the event of Cucuta's return to national football.

Well, it is in the environment of the motilón team that it is said that the team (today chairman José Augusto Cadena) will return to the highest category of Colombian football next season.

In the northern capital of Santander, it is believed that the BetPlay tournament team returned to the first division without the need for clubs to fight for promotion, as it was traditionally.

Jorge Luis Pinto in 2006 and won the semi-finalist of the Cup Libertadores in 2007 with coach Jorge Luis Bernal.
