The story of Tulio Gomez with America de Cali
Gómez began investing in América de Cali in 2014, when the team was in the second division of Colombian football. He assumed the presidency on May 10, 2016, replacing Orestes Sangiovanni.
That same year, América returned to the A division after a five-year absence and then won two league titles, in 2019-II and 2020. However, in recent years, the team’s campaigns have not been the best. In the first half of 2024, they did not qualify for the semifinals and in the Copa Sudamericana they were eliminated by Alianza.
