A former member of Ignacio Ruglio’s governing group at Peñarol has joined forces with Santiago Sánchez to form a joint slate ahead of the club’s elections in Uruguay.
The two figures met for several hours on Saturday and found they share a vision for how the club should be governed. After those talks they reached an agreement. Alejandro González is leaving the official ruling group, while Sánchez stays in the race as a candidate.
A shift in the race
The deal reshapes the lineup of candidates at the Montevideo club, which is one of the most traditional names in Uruguayan football. González’s departure from the Ruglio camp marks a clear break with the current administration, while Sánchez keeps his own candidacy and now runs alongside him.
