Argentina top-flight club Vélez Sarsfield has taken action by suspending four players following serious allegations of rape made by a woman last week. The club announced the suspension of goalkeeper Sebastián Sosa, defender Braian Cufré, midfielder José Ignacio Florentín, and striker Abiel Osorio after being informed of the launch of a formal investigation by prosecutors.
The incident reportedly took place in Tucuman, a city located 1,200 kilometers north of Buenos Aires, where Vélez Sarsfield had a match against Atletico Tucuman last Saturday. According to local media reports, the woman involved stated that she had agreed to accompany one of the players to a hotel room, only to find three other men present.
