- The departure follows poor results, fan pressure, and internal squad friction.

Corinthians has officially dismissed executive Marcelo Paz. The decision was the result of mounting pressure across three areas: a negative run of form that left the club facing relegation in the Campeonato Brasileiro, external pressure from the Gaviões da Fiel supporters' group, and dissatisfaction among the players.
According to ge, the final moment of Paz's tenure involved a phone call with club president Osmar Stabile, during which Paz questioned further delays in the payment of players' image rights.
Meanwhile, the squad under manager Seedorf has resumed training at CT Joaquim Grava following a 1-1 draw against Vitória in the 31st round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. While the starting eleven focused on regenerative exercises, the reserves participated in a session centered on ball possession and pressing.
