Lleida Esportiu breaks down and its future is in danger

Lleida Esportiu is in danger of disappearing. The entity’s situation is unsustainable and is that the players of the first team have already decided to report the club to the Association of Spanish Footballers (AFE) for non-payment of payroll. Many players have not received a single euro for three months and hope to be able to take advantage of the accelerated withdrawal process. Last day, against Cerdanyola, the squad stood during the first minute of the game and this Sunday, against Terrassa, at home they could repeat and even refuse to play.

What is certain is that the Lleida Esportiu is in an extreme situation and its present and future in second RFEF is in serious danger. The players are fed up with the absence of solutions and the inaction of the board. Confidence is null and they no longer believe that they are going to charge imminently. In addition, only six footballers received part of the salary for the month of August. There are also protests because others do not even have a copy of their contract. All the players are going through difficulties and even, according to Catalunya Ràdio, one of the first team is about to be evicted from his flat.

The goalkeeper, and captain, of Lleida Esportiu Pau Torres (He played in Segunda with Alavés and Valladolid) did not hesitate to report the situation they are going through and, on Catalunya Ràdio, He stated that “I had no other option, after all the facilities I gave them, to report Lleida. It is not an easy situation or a dish of good taste to denounce the club in which I have been for so many years, however what is mine is mine. I have been here for more than six years and I have played more than 200 games, in addition to living in this city. It’s the worst ending I could have had. I never thought it would happen to me, but they are circumstances that you do not expect. I already told the managers that I gave them a margin until November 30 and to pay me slowly. Their response was that they were very grateful and they gave me everything in promissory notes, but the surprise is that, despite making this effort, I don’t have a single euro. ” Pau Torres was tremendously hurt because “they even told me that they had transferred me and nothing has reached me. Many lies, calls to locate them and many things with which they have laughed at me “.
