Eduardo Carlezzo, lawyer of the Chilean Football Federation (ANFP), said if Ecuador’s national team has struggled in Qatar in the last few hours, The World Cup was “tainted” and the player insisted there was “sufficient evidence” that Byron Castillo was lying about his origin..
Three days after Fifa settled the lawsuit filed by ANFP, the Brazilian lawyer increased the pressure on the side, stressing that “it would be scandalous” if complaints that Castillo had played with altered documents in the election were ignored because the Ecuadorian, according to his findings, was actually born in Colombia.
“The burden of proof is very high,” he stressed. “All clubs, all Ecuadorian football know what happened to Byron Castillo. So it seemed important to me that people know all the history.”Added lawyer.

Carlezzo warned that the closeness of the World Cup and the fact that the groups are already tied play against Chile’s demand, which is “seeking points and quotas for the World Cup”..
“Should we just sit around with all the background information we have? If I did that, I’d give away my law license and do something else. That’s very important and I hope FIFA looks at it technically.”“, complo.
Also, ANFP stated that “it looks like there won’t be a private investigation about the actor and that worries me a lot. Byron
Castillo was supposed to speak and the sportsmen had to listen to him. This will not happen”.

“We present all the evidence and the player is Colombian but the World Cup is close and what we wanted never happened. I can say with certainty that if we had more time before the groups withdraw, I have no doubt that we would have made a positive decision for Chile.”
But when it comes to tickets sold, travel packages, World Cup preparations, the easiest decision is to leave everything as it is. We will go to the Supreme Court, then if it is negative again, we will go to the Supreme Court. Arbitration for Sport”added.
Carlezzo acknowledged that the alleged responsibility could reach not only the player who has not disclosed so far, but also the Ecuadorian Football Federation.

“The Ecuadorian Federation knew from the beginning of Byron’s background. That’s why they separated it from a sub’20. They knew the whole story and got complaints but did nothing. Is it because he’s too good to cast an actor?” he wondered.
The falsification of player documents is nothing new in Ecuador,” he said.

“In Ecuador, domestic and foreign players had a consolidated data tampering plan. Since the pressure was so great, The federation had to sign a cooperation agreement with the National Census Bureau.. Exactly this institution was to become an inspector. The problem was so big,” the lawyer concluded.
This Friday, June 10, FIFA’s decision on the case is expected. However, this could only be the first part of the novel, for there would be two more objections on the table.
