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

Criticism of the directors of the main divisions of professional football in Colombia does not stop: the suspension of football due to the Colombian legislative elections from 2022 to 2026 was provided for the management of the issue after the opening of the two Division Finals, where two clubs were already transferred to BetPlay: Dimmayor League 2022 (Union Magdalena and Cortulua).

The Colombian football management agency was addressed when former journalist Iván Mejia complained that due to the immobilization of the Magdalena coalition, the investigation of FC Llaneros was closed in Di Mallorca, causing damage to the promotion of Fortaleza (CEIF). Fernando Jaramillo Giraldo resigned if Cucuta returned to national football.

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

It is believed that in the northern capital of Santander, the BetPlay tournament team has traditionally returned to the first division without the need for clubs to fight for promotion.However, a group of clubs who decide to vote for the future of the Cucuteno team will not welcome this situation.

However, the decision to return Cucuta to “A” directly depends on the vote of the other 35 clubs that make up the organization. From the beginning, Cucuta Deportivo will receive 16 votes in the definitive Congress of Dimayor.

There is a historic Colombian professional football club that belongs to the second category and we do not see the Norte de Santander team return to Fair A without merit in this kind of sport.

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

After that, the team left the championship, and Dimayor immediately withdrew due to economic bankruptcy and debt. The corporate superintendent sent the club from a corporate reorganization procedure to a liquidation procedure.

The discussion of the new category of Cucuta is open, so everything will be decided at the General Meeting on Thursday, March 16, and this decision will eventually become known to give a definitive answer to the future of Cucuta Deportivo, a club that has not changed records. Dimayor moved to Alianza Petrolera as Barrancabermeja, but without having to restore what he already had in the border town, he will pay off the debt and fulfill it as a place to appeal in the General Stadium of Santander.

At the same time, fans of a team that has lost sports recognition from the Colombian Ministry of Sports hope to return to the official game regardless of category, since historically the city has always supported the team and is one of the best football fields in the country. In 2006, he won the championship against D.T. Jorge Luis Pinto, and in 2007 he won the Libertadores Cup semifinalist with coach Jorge Luis Bernal.
