Corinthians Grande movement backs Fiel Torcedor vote in statute reform | OneFootball

Corinthians has been experiencing a turbulent political scenario in recent months. Late in the afternoon next Monday (9), the vote on the club's statutory reform will take place at Parque São Jorge. Between the end of 2025 and the beginning of 2026, ten public hearings were held, attended by council members, associates, and collectives to debate the draft bill, released by Romeu Tuma Júnior, president of the Deliberative Council, in October last year.

One of the main topics proposed in the reform is the inclusion of the Fiel Torcedor (Loyal Supporter) vote in the club's elections. Late this Friday afternoon (6), the Movimento Corinthians Grande (MCG), slate 82, issued a statement on its social media defending the approval of the fan member vote already for the 2026 presidential elections.

In the statement, the political group, while defending the agenda, mentions that “All forces interested in expanding the electoral base of voters and the reach of internal democracy tools within Corinthians should mobilize so that more and more Corinthians fans can have the option to vote and participate in the electoral process, exercising true Corinthians citizenship.”

The Fiel Torcedor vote is present in two of the three proposals for statutory reform. The first mentions the approval of the participation of fan members starting from the club's 2026 presidential elections. The second concerns their participation in the Corinthians electoral process only in 2030. The third, in turn, keeps the statute in its current format, in effect since 2008 and which was adjusted in 2022.

Last Thursday (5), the Corinthians Guidance Council (CORI) met and, unanimously, rejected the new statute text. The body also advocates for changes only in the most sensitive points of the current wording. The statutory reform at Alvinegro proposes changes related to governance, accountability of club leaders for mismanagement, tax regime, and spending limits.

Gaviões da Fiel, the main Corinthians supporters' group, called on fans last Thursday (5) to follow the Deliberative Council's vote on the statutory reform in front of Parque São Jorge. In the statement, the group also demands internal transparency regarding the punishments of the last former presidents.

For the Fiel Torcedor vote and the strengthening of democracy at Corinthians.

The Movimento Corinthians Grande publicly expresses its total engagement and support for the approval, in the process of reforming the statute of Sport Club Corinthians Paulista, of the Fiel Torcedor vote, even in the elections scheduled for the current year of 2026.

All forces interested in expanding the electoral base of voters and the reach of internal democracy tools within Corinthians should mobilize so that more and more Corinthians fans can have the option to vote and participate in the electoral process, exercising true Corinthians citizenship.

We understand that such a topic, due to the immense importance it represents for the future of Corinthians, deserves to be highlighted for voting by the deliberative council.We are concerned that seasonality and political circumstances, typical of this year's electoral agenda, as well as other matters present in the reform text that bring disagreements or even make it difficult to build consensus among the council members, may harm this decision, which is central to the strengthening and expansion of our democracy, ensuring the representativeness of our supporters.
