The AFA paid at least $300 million to the company that is listed as the owner of the Pilar mansion
The Argentine Football Association (AFA) has been linked to a payment of at least $300 million to a company owning a mansion in Pilar, a situation revealed during a judicial investigation.
Recent judicial investigations have unveiled payments made by the Argentine Football Association (AFA) to Real Central, the company associated with a mansion owned by AFA treasurer Pablo Toviggino. The payments, which amount to at least $300 million, were documented in order forms that were confiscated during a raid at the AFA's headquarters in December. These orders indicate that the funds were for 'logistics services', raising questions about the nature and legitimacy of these expenditures.
The documents linking AFA to Real Central disclose that significant monetary transfers were conducted last year, specifically in June 2025, which further compounds suspicion regarding the AFA’s financial practices. The company appears to have connections with the formal owners, retired Ana LucÃa Conte and her son, a fact that points to a potential conflict of interest involving AFA officials. This incident forms part of a larger investigation into the financial management of the AFA.
The implications of this inquiry could be profound, potentially impacting the reputation of the AFA and leading to calls for greater accountability in sports organizations. With legal action possibly forthcoming, the transparency of financial dealings within the AFA is now under scrutiny, and the broader effects on Argentine football remain to be seen as this case unfolds.
