Paraguayan defender Balbuena suspended the contract with Dynamo

MOSCOW, Jul 10 Paraguayan Dynamo Moscow defender Fabian Balbuena has suspended his contract with the “white-and-blue”, according to the official website of the football club. In June, the International Football Federation (FIFA) extended the permission to suspend contracts with Russian clubs for foreign players until June 2023. The club said in a statement that Dynamo considers this decision inconsistent, discriminatory and grossly violating the fundamental principles of FIFA. The club also reserves the right to appeal the relevant FIFA decision to the competent authorities. «We are certainly upset by Fabian's decision, but the club was ready for the possible consequences of the recent FIFA decision, is actively working on the transfer market and will do everything possible to, among other things, compensate this loss. We thank Fabian for the selfless game for Dynamo and his contribution to winning bronze medals last season, we hope for his soon return to our club,» said Dynamo CEO Pavel Pivovarov. (the activities of Meta (social networks Facebook and Instagram) are banned in Russia as extremist) said that he had been thinking about this decision for several months. He notes that it is due solely to family circumstances. Balbuena moved to Dynamo from the English West Ham in July last year as a free agent and spent 32 matches last season, scored three goals and gave one assist.
