Corinthians lose over R$100,000 in spell without matches at Fazendinha | OneFootball

Maintenance work on the Fazendinha pitch caused a financial impact of more than R$ 100,000 for Corinthians. During the 21 days in which the stadium at Parque São Jorge was unable to host matches, the club had to move women’s and youth team fixtures to other venues.

During that period, eight matches were removed from Fazendinha’s schedule. To keep the calendar on track, Corinthians hosted games at Canindé, CERET, Bruno José Daniel, and Gabriel Marques Silva, creating extra costs for the club. The report was published by Meu Timão.

The biggest deficits recorded so far are related to the professional women’s football matches played at Canindé. The match against Santos ended with a negative balance of R$ 45,958.14, while the clash against Vitória caused a loss of R$ 36,966.75.

Also at Canindé, the Under-17 team’s match against Bahia represented another significant loss for the club. The match’s financial report showed a deficit of R$ 26,431.47.

The amount was lower at CERET. Even with the 5-0 thrashing of Red Bull Bragantino in the Paulista Women’s Under-20 Championship, Corinthians posted a negative financial result of R$ 5,552.16.

Considering the four matches whose financial reports have been made available, the loss reaches R$ 114,908.52. The amounts break down as follows:

The total, however, could be even higher. Four matches played during the maintenance period still have not had their respective financial reports published. They are: Corinthians 1-3 Ferroviária, in the Brazilian Women’s Under-17 Championship; Corinthians 4-0 Ferroviária, in the Paulista Under-20 Championship; Corinthians 4-0 São Caetano, in the Paulista Under-17 Championship; and Corinthians 8-0 UDA, in the Brazilian Women’s Under-17 Championship.

According to ge.globo, Fazendinha has already been cleared to host matches again. The stadium underwent an inspection by the São Paulo Football Federation (FPF) last week, and the pitch was authorized to be used again by Corinthians.

Fazendinha’s return to Corinthians’ schedule will take place next Wednesday, with the match between Corinthians and Fluminense in the Brazilian Under-17 Championship.

In professional women’s football, the return to the stadium is scheduled for Saturday (22). On that occasion, Corinthians will host Internacional in the final round of the first phase of the Brazilian Women’s Championship.

Internally, the club has also established a change in how matches are distributed. As reported by the outlet, the trend is for Fazendinha to be used less frequently by the youth categories, prioritizing matches for the professional women’s team.

At this first stage, only the Under-17 team will have fixtures scheduled at the stadium. The other youth teams are expected to continue using other facilities to play their home matches.
