Financial issues deepen rift between Corinthians women and board | OneFootball

Corinthians is going through a period of strain behind the scenes in women’s football. Part of the squad is unhappy over outstanding financial issues involving image rights and bonuses that have still not been paid by the club. The situation was first reported by Meu Timão.

The players are still awaiting image rights payments for the months of June and July. Under the established payment schedule, the amounts should have been deposited on July 15 and August 15, respectively, but they remain unpaid.

In addition to the monthly amounts, the Brabas’ recent achievements also carry pending bonuses. Corinthians has not yet made the payments related to the 2025 Women’s Libertadores title, as well as the runner-up finishes in the 2026 Copa das Campeãs and Supercopa do Brasil.

The situation has caused discomfort among the players, especially given the lack of clarity over when the debts will be settled. According to Meu Timão, Corinthians’ finance department acknowledged the delays and said it is working to secure funds to make the payments, but has not yet provided a timeline.

The issue comes at a time when the club is also trying to catch up on obligations in other areas of football. Last Monday (24), Corinthians paid off one of the outstanding image rights payments owed to the men’s squad. In the women’s team, however, the two months are still unpaid.

While the financial issues remain unresolved, the Brabas head into an important week on the pitch. This Wednesday (26), at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time), the team hosts Taubaté at Fazendinha in the seventh and final round of the first stage of the Paulista Women’s Championship.

Corinthians sits fourth in the state competition with ten points and is still chasing a direct place in the semifinals. To achieve that goal, the team must win its match and rely on favorable results in the other fixtures of the round.

Next in the season, the team will also begin its Women’s Brazilian Championship quarterfinal campaign. The opponent will be Cruzeiro, with the first match in Belo Horizonte and the return leg in São Paulo.
