Corinthians' Plans

Corinthians plans to use the money to settle the transfer ban and handle other financial commitments that are prioritized. Besides the R$ 77 million, the club will receive the television quota from the Liga Forte União (LFU) this month.

Moreover, Osmar Stabile's board already has the approval of the Cori (Guidance Council) to take a loan of up to R$ 100 million, if necessary.

The Timão is still facing a deadlock to lift the CBF transfer ban. If they manage to get rid of the sanction, the club intends to hire specific reinforcements. Corinthians is targeting players on loan or free agents in the market.
