Nicolás Schiappacase, invited to participate in the pre-season of the first team

Nicolás Schiappacase, 17-year-old forward, joins as a guest the pre-season of the first team of Atlético de Madrid with the authorisation of his club, the Uruguayan River Plate. The U20 Uruguayan international joins this Monday the preparation of our team in Los Ángeles de San Rafael.   

As a community member and a minor, Atlético de Madrid consulted with FIFA last April to check if there was any legal impediment to his signing. The governing body of international football gave a first favourable response after analysing the case, but in the next few days the club and the player will present all the necessary documentation in order to obtain a firm authorization allowing the transfer of the young forward to our club.
