Relegation from League 1 is once once more called into question due to non-sports problems. To what happened in the last three years we must add what will happen in this one, where Binacional and Unión Comercio would have been untrue by not declaring the real amounts in the contracts of their footballers.
Scandalous. The contracts of some players from the two aforementioned clubs and the respective sworn statements from each institution came into our hands.

The complaint? The figures are astronomically different, a bad practice that is not only an ethical breach, but also threatens the Licensing Commission.
Let us remember that, for the sake of fair competition between all Peruvian soccer teams, each of them is obliged to declare, among other things, the monthly expenses of their entire team to monitor the payment of salaries, avoid fines and deductions. of points.
“Here we charge in black and white. On the 30th they pay you the white, which is the minimum, and between the 10th and 12th, they pay you the black, which is all.”

But what happens when an institution declares an amount less than the real amount to escape its obligations? According to the Licensing regulations, article 19.1.c.: “a license may be revoked before or during the season in the event that it fails to comply with the duty of truthfulness of the information in accordance with the provisions of article 27.”
Precisely, this last article cited indicates that, if the false information declared is proven to be false, the club’s license will be revoked. That is, will Binacional and Unión Comercio descend to the Second Division administratively?
About this, we consulted the lawyer—an expert in sports law—Jaime Talledo who explained to us that “the Licensing Commission would have to act ex officio and decide the scope of the revocation of the License.”
Then, “the clubs that would have been untrue might appeal the sanction to the Licensing Court and, if they also deny the reason, they might go to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) as a last resort.”
As we can see, the definition of Peruvian relegation—once once more—will not be determined within the field, but in the courts, something that is no longer surprising and seems to be a custom.
It should be noted that, in response to this complaint, Perú21 contacted the press officers of both institutions and, while the one from Binacional mentioned that he did not know anything and that the legal area was not there, the one from Unión Comercio warned that his club was going to make a statement. only on Monday through a statement.
Years where the TAS defined relegation from League 1:
2020: Alianza is right and maintains the category. 2021: History repeats itself in favor of Binacional. 2022: The claim of Ayacucho and San Martín does not prosper.
