Vasco take legal action to dispute fee for one of their key players | OneFootball

Vasco da Gama has begun a legal battle to correct the value of a debt with Atlético-MG, related to the purchase of right-back Paulo Henrique. The club presented to the Rio Court a "credit challenge". This measure disputes the amount of almost R$ 5 million listed in the Judicial Recovery process, claiming that part of the value has already been paid. The information is from the Blog do Ancelmo Gois, from the newspaper O Globo.

Vasco disputes the value of R$ 4.99 million

As part of the Judicial Recovery process, the judicial administration included Atlético-MG as a creditor of Vasco in the amount of R$ 4.99 million. This amount would be related to the transfer of the full-back, carried out in December 2023.

The board of CRVG, however, disagrees with the number presented and moved to rectify it.

The argument of Vasco's legal department is that the real debt is smaller. The club states in the document that it has already made the payment of the first installment of the agreement, in the amount of R$ 1.21 million. Therefore, the remaining debt with the Minas Gerais club would actually be R$ 3.91 million.

Rectification request was filed in court

Based on this claim, Vasco formally requests that the list of creditors of its Judicial Recovery be corrected. The imbroglio originated from the non-payment of the four installments scheduled for 2024, due to the severe financial crisis experienced by the club. Now, it will be up to the court to analyze the vouchers and define the correct value of the pending amount.
