The case was pointed out by Chile, according to which Castillo has false documents and is in fact Colombian.
–
Contrary to Castillo, Chile has irrefutable evidence that he was born in Tumac, Colombia in 1995 and not in Ecuador in 1998, according to his documents. The player is said to use a fake passport and birth certificate.
–
Lawyer Eduardo Carlezzo, representing Chilean football, previously urged FIFA to speed up the investigation and impose the most severe punishment on Ecuador.
–
“Chilean football has 100% certainty that there has been a gross violation of the rules by a player (Byron Castillo). We have no doubt that, according to the documents we have at our disposal, he is Colombian, “said a lawyer for ADN radio, adding that he expects a verdict from FIFA in a matter of days.
–
“The Ecuadorian registry office has confirmed that its documents do not exist. And if they don’t exist, then his ones are fake, “he added.
–
A similar case has already been addressed, for example, in connection with the ex-Spartan Kanga.
–
The Chileans finished seventh in the South American qualifiers and did not make it to the championship, while the fourth Ecuador did. If all the matches Castillo had competed in were lost, he would have lost fourteen points and lost the World Cup.
–
Peru, which is expected to have an intercontinental playoff with Australia in mid-June, will move to fourth place, according to still valid results. And instead of Peru, Chile would jump to the bar.
