The Alverca SAD clarified, in a statement, the FIFA ban on registering players due to a debt to Atlético Mineiro related to the transfer of goalkeeper Matheus Mendes. The Ribatejanos pointed out that they continue to thank for sending the necessary documentation for payment. The club emphasized that «the SAD has always manifested total availability and intention to fully comply with its contractual obligations, being only conditioned by the absence of the formal elements required for the payment to be properly processed.» «The situation is being followed with diligence, with confidence that the process will be regularized as soon as possible, as soon as the missing documentation is received», reiterated Alverca, which has already registered three winter reinforcements.
