Colo Colo faces a significant financial obligation after the National Professional Football Association's (ANFP) Patrimonial Affairs Tribunal ruled in favor of Cobreloa regarding training rights for former player Ignacio Jara.

The tribunal accepted Cobreloa's claim, ordering Colo Colo's parent company, Blanco y Negro S.A., to pay a substantial sum for Jara's development. Cobreloa announced the decision through a statement, confirming that the tribunal upheld their legal position and recognized the rights they claimed.

The resolution upheld the legal position sustained by Cobreloa throughout the entire process, recognizing the rights claimed by our institution and condemning Blanco y Negro S.A. to the payment of the sums demanded by the club.

Blanco y Negro is now required to pay $150,000 USD, equivalent to approximately $134.4 million Chilean pesos, to Cobreloa. The club stated its commitment to ensuring the full execution of the tribunal's resolution and will exercise its rights within the current legal framework.

Ignacio Jara was part of Colo Colo until 2024 but had limited playing time with the main team, spending time on loan at Unión Española and Cobreloa itself. He later played for Coquimbo Unido and Deportes Antofagasta, and as of 2026, he represents Unión San Felipe.

Cobreloa will continue to take all necessary steps to ensure the full compliance with the ruling issued, exercising its rights opportunely and acting always within the framework of current regulations.
