Corinthians seek reinforcements but see a limited market | OneFootball

Corinthians continues to search for reinforcements, now in the exception window within the national market and among players without a contract. According to information gathered by Central do Timão, internally, the club’s departments already understand that, despite the need for signings, there are few interesting options available for the club, since at this moment it is only possible to sign players who have played in state championships or free agents.

These few options go beyond the restricted market conditions mentioned above, with another fundamental factor being the difficult financial situation the club is experiencing. Since the arrival of executive Marcelo Paz, a zero-cost signing policy has been established, paying only signing bonuses and salaries, and spending as little as possible in each negotiation, whether for loans or permanent transfers.

Among the possible moves to be made by Corinthians, which exemplify the lack of resources, is the pursuit of young defender Dantas from Novorizontino, which the club abandoned due to the amount that would have to be invested in the signing. Another name already in initial talks with Timão is goalkeeper Neto from Botafogo, where the club is seeking to understand the conditions for a possible loan deal.

This understanding of the “scarcity” of the market, given the resources available to Corinthians, also extends to the coaching staff led by Dorival Jr., who already sees the squad taking shape with the additions made so far in this first window of the season.

So far this season, Corinthians has already signed seven players: Gabriel Paulista, Pedro Milans, Allan, Matheus Pereira, Zakaria Labyad, Kaio César and, finally, Jesse Lingard, who has not yet been officially announced by Corinthians, pending bureaucratic details. In addition to the new signings, Timão also renewed the contract of left-back Fabrizio Angileri and saw the return of striker Pedro Raul.
