MEXICO CITY, June 7 (Reuters) - Argentine fintech unicorn Uala said on Wednesday it launched a high-yield savings account in Mexico after getting approval from regulators to acquire Mexico's ABC Capital Bank and expand operations in the country. Launching the account at an event in Mexico, Uala said the high-yield account will have a fixed annual interest rate and would pay an annual percentage yield of 9%. Uala said a Mexican government survey showed that 54% of people in Mexico save informally, and four out of 10 people do not receive any yield on their savings. Uala received authorization in late May from Mexico's bank regulator CNBV to buy bank ABC Capital, which allowed the Argentine firm to move forward with its banking license in Mexico. The fintech also announced that remittances sent through Western Union (WU.N), Vigo and Orlandi Valuta can now be received through its app.

După testul pozitiv al lui Sergio Busquets, selecţionerul Spaniei, Luis Enrique, a decis să apeleze la mai mulţi jucători de rezervă, pentru a acoperi eventualele forfait-uri din cauza Covid-19 până la startul competiţiei. Astfel, Luis Enrique i-a chemat pe portarul Kepa Arrizabalaga (Chelsea), fundaşul Raul Albiol (Villarreal), atacantul Rodrigo Moreno (Leeds United) şi mijlocaşii Pablo Fornals (West Ham United), Carlos Soler (Valencia) şi Brais Mendez (Celta Vigo). Luis Enrique are timp la dispoziţie până sâmbătă pentru a face schimbări în lotul său de 26 de jucători.

Fotbalistul Brais Mendez de la Celta Vigo a fost chemat de selecționerul Luis Enrique și a părăsit Grecia, acolo unde odihnea cu familia. Acest lucru s-a întâmplat, după ce patru fotbaliști au fost testați pozitiv cu noul coronavirus, iar selecționerul a fost nevoit să convoace patru jucători în regim de urgență. Pe lângă Mendez, Enrique a apelat la serviciile lui Rodrigo Moreno de la Leeds United, Pablo Fornals de la West Ham United şi Carlos Soler de la Valencia. Astfel, selecţionerul este îngrijorat că mijlocașul ar fi putut transmite virusul altor coechipieri, deoarece, potrivit presei spaniole, jucătorii au mâncat împreună la restaurant în ziua în care fotbalistul Barcelonei a fost testat pozitiv. În același timp, Federaţia spaniolă a anunţat că este posibilă convocarea altor jucători în afară de cei patru.
