Faroni Tied to AFA Funds in Perugia Purchase as Raids and Bank Records Fuel Probe

U.S. bank records underpin a widening probe into AFA revenue flows now backed by Argentine court orders.

Overview

  • Bank documents trace 25 transfers between January and September 2025 from TourProdEnter’s Bank of America account to Sports Next Gen and accounts in the UK and Mauritius that assembled about US$6.2 million for Perugia, plus another US$500,000 to Beagle Capital.
  • U.S. discovery orders compelled banks including JP Morgan and Citibank to release transaction data used to map the cross‑border flows.
  • Argentine federal judge Luis Armella ordered a raid of Javier Faroni’s home in Nordelta and had him temporarily detained at Aeroparque as his travel was halted.
  • Separate searches at AFA offices in Buenos Aires and Ezeiza uncovered a contract with TourProdEnter and records of transfers exceeding US$1.2 million to the firm, according to case documents reported by TN.
  • Investigative records indicate TourProdEnter managed roughly US$260 million in AFA international revenues with at least US$42 million routed to shell companies, while Italy’s FIGC has sanctioned Perugia and payments tied to an associate of AFA leader Pablo Toviggino were logged, including one to his partner.
