The Grêmio has focused efforts on reorganizing finances and prioritizing the payment of urgent debts. Among the identified liabilities is the claim of approximately R$ 7 million in contractual bonuses by the Danish forward Martin Braithwaite, notified to the club since July 2024.
According to information from Correio do Povo, the current management confirmed the existence of the demand and announced the intention to settle the amount by the end of this month, aiming to avoid a possible contract termination.
In the same timeframe, the Tricolor is also seeking to resolve the transfer ban with Fifa, measures that depend on immediate cash inflows, such as the transfer of Alysson to Aston Villa and a master sponsorship agreement.
Meanwhile, Braithwaite continues his recovery after rupturing his Achilles tendon in September, with a return expected only in April 2026; thus, the sporting and financial situation becomes sensitive and interdependent.
In 2025, Braithwaite played 35 matches wearing the Grêmio jersey, scoring 15 goals and providing 3 assists.
