The memory is very vivid in the memory of the blue fans: the triplet, the first of Edgar Guerrain the 5-0 win against Independent Medellin by League I 2024, He once again thrilled with a new gem in the prolific lower divisions from which so many figures have emerged.

He had the opportunity, in the face of an epidemic of injuries, and he made it count to the point of sounding like a possible reinforcement of Águilas Doradas, Deportivo Pereira and Junior de Barranquilla.

He is 22 years old, has speed, punch and a lot to give if they give him the continuity that he has not achieved dressed in blue. This is what they call a true market opportunity.

He participated in the last crown of the Super League in front of the team Arturo Reyes and he showed off his imbalance, but then came the surprise: he disappeared from the starting roster in the 0-0 against Bucaramanga.

What happened? “He has not settled his current part with the club, we are waiting for that and it is the only reason why he did not come,” said coach Alberto Gamero himself.

And then the question arises: does this pressure for the young player to sign the terms offered by the club not border on possible workplace harassment? Although it is a relatively common practice in football, in light of the Law the discussion is, at least, valid.

“If it is persistent behavior, there is clearly harassment. But not calling it once is not,” explained the lawyer. Andrés Charria about this particular case.

But if there are no physical problems or technical reasons, as coaches often say, isn't marginalizing him putting pressure on him? “They are technical decisions that we footballers suffer when we do not want to renew. It happened to Ospina in France and he suffered for a year because he didn't want to sign for four more years. “That frustrates the possibility of professional development, but Guerra is being treated like everyone else, he trains like everyone else, he receives clothes like his teammates, but he is not called up… Harassment occurs when he is not given the conditions,” he explained. to its turn Carlos González Puche, executive director of Acolfutpro.

“I don't think he has any interest in an early termination of the contract and comes out fighting with Millonarios, he will wait for four months to pass before being a free agent. I see the just cause as very complicated,” he added.

For charriathe situation of War is increasingly common: “Players, aware of their situation, are clear that not renewing their contracts will allow them to seek better horizons. That is why it is increasingly difficult for clubs, even the largest ones, to retain their players from legal manner.”

That is why the renewal process is so complex, because it is the movement of the market that makes the players decide and no longer the loyalty or prestige of an institution.

So the path is the legal dispute between the footballer and the institution? “There could be (a lawsuit) but the issue is the implications of entering there, I don't think Guerra decides to leave the team badly. If the coach says that he doesn't line him up because he didn't sign a contract, there is a reason, but it is always the power of him and his technical reasons not to line up the player,” González Puche concluded.
