Palmeiras set for windfall from Wesley’s sale by Internacional | OneFootball

Palmeiras will earn a millionaire sum from the sale of forward Wesley, who was transferred by Internacional to Al-Rayyan, from Qatar, for US$ 8 million (about R$ 43.6 million). Verdão will also see its coffers swell by R$ 16.7 million.

The club from Rio Grande do Sul kept 50% of the amount (R$ 21.8 million), while the remainder went to Palmeiras. However, Verdão, which owned the other 50% of the player's economic rights, will not keep all of this share.

Understand the calculation

Thus, 30% of the R$ 21.8 million (R$ 6.54 million) will be passed on to Wesley himself, leaving Palmeiras with the other 70% of its share (R$ 15.26 million).

Palmeiras will also earn R$ 1.5 million through FIFA's solidarity mechanism. Since Wesley was at the club between the ages of 17 and 23, Palmeiras receives 3.5% of the total transaction.

Wesley played 124 matches wearing the Palmeiras shirt, scored 18 goals, and provided 14 assists between 2020 and 2022. Before moving to Internacional, he played for Cruzeiro.
