The soap opera between Flamengo and Corinthians for the sale of Hugo Souza will gain a few more chapters. This is because Mais Querido, this Saturday (12), refused the proposal with guarantees from the São Paulo team to purchase the archer definitively in installments.


According to information from journalist Venê Casagrande, the proposal sent byCorinthians to Rubro-Negro was to pay off the 800 thousand euros (R$4.7 million) in four installments, with values ​​of 200 thousand euros each semester. However, Flamengo did not accept "Brax" as a guarantor presented by the São Paulo team and refused the offer. This is because the company is the same one responsible for paying Matheuzinho, who has late installments.


CORINTHIANS STUDY OTHER FORMS OF BUY HUGO


Thus, Corinthians only has two options to buy Hugo Souza together to Flamengo. Firstly, the São Paulo team can pay in cash. On the other hand, the team has the possibility of presenting a new guarantee for Rubro-Negro to evaluate.

RACE AGAINST THE TIME


It is worth remembering that Corinthians has already paid around R$1 million to Flamengo to use Hugo Souzain the Brasileirão and Copa do Brasil games. Thus, the São Paulo team is racing against time to pay off the purchase of the goalkeeper so as not to have to pay a new fine to use him on the 20th, in the second leg of the national knockout semi-final.

Flamengo and Corinthianswill face each other again on October 20th, at 4pm, at Neo Química Arena. However, before Mais Querido thinks about the knockout stage, the team faces Fluminense on the 17th, in the 30th round of the Brasileirão, at Maracanã.
