The debts that could land Santos with another transfer ban | OneFootball

Santos could face a new transfer ban over three debts totaling nearly R$ 30 million.

The largest claim is from Portuguese coach Pedro Caixinha and his staff, who are demanding a total of R$ 15 million (an amount related to the termination fee), following a FIFA ruling in September 2025. He was dismissed in April last year.

The club also lost its FIFA case over the signing of Jean Lucas from Monaco and owes €2 million (about R$ 12.1 million) from the final installment of the deal.

Another case involves Yusupha Njié: Santos did not pay the loan fee to Qatar’s Al-Markhiya and was ordered to pay €400,000 (approximately R$ 2.4 million). The striker did not even play for Peixe.

The club appealed to CAS in some cases, but it could still be punished if it does not settle the debts.
