Crisis at Corinthians: Executive Fired and Legal Action from Cuiabá
- President Osmar Stabile dismissed Football Executive Marcelo Paz following poor on-field results.
- Cuiabá is requesting a two-year transfer ban for Corinthians due to unpaid debts regarding Raniele.
- The club has reached three months of unpaid image rights, totaling approximately R$ 30 million.
Corinthians has announced the departure of Football Executive Marcelo Paz. Following a meeting on Tuesday, President Osmar Stabile decided to end the professional's tenure due to the team's continued poor performance. The club is currently on a nine-game winless streak, a run of form witnessed by Clarence Seedorf from the stands during a recent match.
Off the pitch, the financial situation is worsening. According to reports from ge, the club failed to pay October's image rights, which were due this Tuesday. This marks three consecutive months of arrears for the men's team. With monthly costs estimated at R$ 10 million by the financial department, the total debt for these payments has reached an unprecedented level for the current year. The club has stated it is working to resolve the issue.
Simultaneously, Cuiabá has petitioned the CBF's National Dispute Resolution Chamber (CNRD) for severe sanctions against the São Paulo club. Due to repeated delays in payments for the transfer of midfielder Raniele, Cuiabá is seeking a two-year transfer ban and the revocation of Corinthians' youth academy certificate. The Mato Grosso-based club also requested the dissolution of Corinthians' collective debt payment plan and a formal investigation.
