Lanús joins Flamengo, takes Internacional to FIFA over unpaid player fee | OneFootball

Internacional owes Lanús (ARG) for Aguirre and Flamengo for Thiago Maia

Lanús (ARG) joins Flamengo in the group of teams claiming debts from Internacional. This is because the Argentine club filed a lawsuit with FIFA against the Gauchos three months ago regarding the deal for right-back Braian Aguirre. The Beira Rio team also has a million-dollar debt with the Most Beloved.

According to Lanús' complaint, Internacional owes a payment that should have been made in September 2024. The debt for Aguirre is $100,000 (approximately R$ 560,000), according to 'GE' investigation.

When did Internacional negotiate with Lanús?

Internacional announced the signing of the right-back on September 2, 2024. To carry out the transaction, however, the Brazilian club committed to paying $1.4 million (R$ 7.91 million at the time) for 50% of the economic rights.

What is the debt with Flamengo?

Flamengo negotiated Thiago Maia with Internacional in 2024. At the time, it was agreed that the Gaucho team would pay 4 million euros (about R$ 25 million at the current rate) in ten installments. The Rio Grande do Sul club, however, has not paid any to date.

Is Internacional 'tricky'?

In fact, the Gauchos tried to pass the debt forward. This is because Internacional wanted to negotiate Thiago Maia with Santos, who would inherit the debt. The player even traveled to São Paulo to sign, but the default gave Flamengo the right to prevent the deal.

Not enough, Internacional tried to resort to another way not to pay Flamengo. However, the Gauchos had their request denied by the National Dispute Resolution Chamber (CNRD). Therefore, if the debt is not paid, the Beira Rio team may suffer a transfer ban as punishment.
