Internacional appeal but lose out to Flamengo over Thiago Maia | OneFootball

What is the latest update on the Thiago Maia case between Flamengo and Internacional?

Internacional is doing everything possible to avoid settling the debt it owes to Flamengo for the purchase of Thiago Maia. This time, the team from Rio Grande do Sul appealed, but their request was denied by the National Dispute Resolution Chamber (CNRD).

At the moment, Internacional is running out of major alternatives to settle or 'escape' from the debt with Flamengo. The team from Rio Grande do Sul is already aware that it will be enforced. With this, the club still has the possibility to appeal to the Arbitration Chamber. However, the process is expensive and usually does not have much effect on decisions.

On the other hand, Flamengo understands that Internacional wants to buy time with these internal maneuvers. The Rubro-Negro believes that the team from Rio Grande do Sul might try a 'last-ditch effort' by requesting to pay the debts in installments. The information comes from journalist Venê Casagrande.
