Atlético Echagüe Club sold its spot in the Liga Argentina de Básquet to Regatas de San Nicolás to address economic difficulties and ensure institutional stability. The club noted that the sale followed struggles to secure resources necessary to sustain professional basketball campaigns.

The transaction, finalized at the Asociación de Clubes (AdC) headquarters for over 40 million pesos, allows Regatas de San Nicolás to return to Argentina’s second-tier basketball division after an 18-year absence. This move leaves the city of Paraná without a representative in this professional category.

Following the sale, internal criticism has emerged from a group of members known as ADN Azul y Negro. They have raised concerns regarding the club’s management, citing a lack of strategic direction, rising membership fees, and the requirement for various sports disciplines to self-manage resources as evidence of insufficient leadership and planning.
