Corinthians pay squad and staff for Copa do Brasil, Supercopa wins | OneFootball

By Tiago Salazar

The Corinthians settled, last Thursday, the financial commitments made with the team, technical staff, and football department employees regarding the awards for winning the Copa do Brasil in 2025 and the Supercopa Rei, won at the beginning of February.

In the agreement made between the parties, Corinthians committed to paying 30% of the total prize amounts for the two titles won, as reported by Gazeta Esportiva. The amount would be paid to members of the technical staff, players, and other football professionals in three installments.

The installments, however, were not monthly, according to the report. The club's management agreed to pay the amounts according to the cash flow. In recent days, the club received new funds, settled the due taxes related to the awards, and honored the commitments previously agreed with those involved in the football department's daily operations.

In total, Corinthians distributed around R$ 26 million in awards to the team, technical staff, and other football employees for the Copa do Brasil and Supercopa do Brasil titles.

Timão earned R$ 77 million in prize money with the Copa do Brasil victory, of which 30% (R$ 23.1 million) was distributed to football professionals. With the Supercopa Rei, Timão earned another R$ 12 million, with about R$ 3.6 million promised to the team, technical staff, and other employees.

The values are approximate, as the agreement with the professionals refers to the payment of 30% of the net balance, meaning 30% of the final prize balance after taxes.

Consecutive Titles

Corinthians won both trophies consecutively. At the end of last season, Timão won the Copa do Brasil for the fourth time by defeating Vasco 2-1 at Maracanã, ending an eight-year drought without national titles. Yuri Alberto and Memphis scored the goals for the team.

In the current season, Corinthians took home the second title of the Supercopa Rei do Brasil. Coach Dorival Júnior's team became champions against Flamengo, winning 2-0 at Mané Garrincha, with goals from Gabriel Paulista and Yuri Alberto.
