At the moment, the Football Federation is not considering his departure, despite the pressure from the fans, and in Demayor strong support was expressed for Ramon Jesuron, who defended himself against the accusations in Miami by saying that it was the goalkeeper who started the fight with the team leader and his son.

There are many voices calling for the departure of the president of the Colombian Football Federation, since it happened in the middle of the Copa America final and on the eve of the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, whose image could cause more problems in the country’s youth competition.

Journalist Maria Jimena Duzan, from the review It changesHe was scathingly critical of Ramon Gisuron, whom he referred to as “daring to tell the country and the masses that he will not resign from his position because what happened to him was an injustice and that the person responsible for his actions” is the security agent who thinks he is more important than him. But also, We know that he is calm and that he continues to strut around power, convinced that the authorized voices, the ones that should demand his resignation,They would never ask for it. So far Jessoron is making his way.

Duzan pointed out that the president has great power in the country: “La Demayor and the Colombian Football Federation did not even talk about his resignation, on the contrary, they came out to support him in a modest way. They did not even ask for a fine.”. Neither the advertisers nor the private companies that finance the union have said anything. His silence is eloquent and plays into Jessoron’s hands, just like that of President Petro, who has so far made no noise about his arrest.

The caller also referred to another scandal of the director, related to the resale of tickets for the qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup in Russia, which resulted in a fine of 18,000 million pesos by the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce: although it is under the office of the Attorney General Nestor Humberto Martínez. With the opening of the first investigations, the Attorney General’s Office of Francisco Barbosa decided to suspend the investigations against the football directors and limit themselves to hitting the small fish. That is why there are only criminal findings against the people linked to Ticketshop and Ticket Ya and total impunity against the leaders of Colombian football involved in these events, as in the case of Ramón Jesurón.

“Ramon Jesuron should have been questioned about his position since the ticket resale network was discovered, but our football leadership and the advertisers who support the Federation did not have the courage to do so. They preferred to remain part of his court and maintain their privileges. Today, football and its fans are paying the price for this cowardly act.“. he added.

The journalist concluded by saying that the president of the Colombian Football Federation, despite his scandals and problems, always remains unpunished in the eyes of the fans: “Pekerman came out with his hat, the coach who gave us back our hope.” And women’s football in the back room has to pay the price, because they don’t see the work. In the one season that went well for him, the news of his arrest ended up overshadowing the team’s achievements.
