Corinthians’ financial crisis has gained yet another chapter.

According to ge, the club has received a new transfer ban that prevents it from registering new players for six months.

This time, the sanction was imposed by the National Chamber for Dispute Resolution (CNRD) of the CBF due to a delay in paying an installment of approximately R$ 8 million.

With immediate effect, this is the third transfer ban imposed on the club in just two months.

⚠️ Buildup of penalties

The New Ban (CNRD)

It refers to the fifth installment of a collective agreement worth R$ 76 million signed by Corinthians to pay creditors (split into quarterly installments over six years).

The club had already delayed the first two payments in the past, resulting in penalties that were kept in place even after the debts were settled.

The other two penalties came from football’s governing body. The first was due to a debt owed to Philadelphia Union (USA) for the transfer of defensive midfielder José Martínez.

The second, last week, was a fine of R$ 1.15 million for chronic delays in the transfers of Martínez himself, Charles (Midtjylland), and Talles Magno (New York City FC).
