“The goal is for the club to compete again in an international Cup,” the players and the Talleres coaching staff consistently repeat., aligned to the speech of President Andrés Fassi. In the Jardín neighborhood, he acknowledges that having been left out of the 2023 continental competitions, in addition to sports frustration, represented “an inconvenience” for the club’s economy.

The defeat against Patronato, in the final of the Argentine Cup, prevented “T” from securing a fixed amount of US$ 3,000,000 for playing in the Libertadores group stage, plus the possibility of pocketing a bonus for a victory of up to US$1,800,000 (US$300,000 for each of the six matches played in that event).

The cache that Conmebol pays to the 32 teams that make up the main draw of its oldest club competition, without counting the new incentive established as “plus per game won” and taking as a reference the oscillating price of the parallel dollar, it represents around 30 percent of the real annual budget of the albiazul entity.

A campaign like the one he carried out last year, advancing to the quarterfinal stage, would have allowed him to amortize 80 percent of the expense, which for fiscal year 2923 is expected to be $3.700 million.

Under the current leadership management, Talleres competed in the Libertadores 2019 and 2022 and in the Sudamericana 2022. Before that, he had played in Conmebol 1999 (he became champion), Mercosur 2001 and Libertadores 2002. In six cup appearances, he achieved 14 wins, 15 draws and 13 losses.

“The objective, in addition to staying in the First Division, is to be able to aspire to an international tournament,” said Luis Fabián Artime, the president of Belgrano, before the start of the current football season. The new scenario that the return to the top division raised for Alberdi’s club includes a budget three times greater than that of the First National, but also the chance of better income from television rights and the great incentive that a probable international experience represents.

In the current prize scale, the Sudamericana grants its participants a minimum income of US$ 900,000, in addition to the opportunity to earn up to US$ 600,000 in addition for victories (US$ 100,000 per game) and an extra US$ 500,000 per match. access the final round.

considering the gap between the ‘basic subscription’ and the ‘giant combo’, the gain could represent, in the case of Belgrano, between 13 and 30 percent of its forecast of annual expenses. Winning the continental championship would allow him to bill another US$ 6,950,000, and exceed his annual forecast, established at $3,240 million.

The Pirate also knows what it is to sail in international waters. Participation in the 2013 Sudamericana was his debut in the Conmebol sphere, and he later repeated the experience in 2015 and 2016. In all cases, with the previous competition format that the second continental club tournament had: direct elimination brackets and charging an amount in dollars per local game.
