Cori statement denies Osmar Stabile joined Monday meeting | OneFootball

The Orientation Council (Cori) of Corinthians released an official statement on Tuesday afternoon commenting on the decisions made at the meeting held the previous night. Among the main issues addressed were the refusal to examine the new proposal for statutory reform submitted by the Deliberative Council (CD) and the suspension of former president Roberto de Andrade from the body’s activities until the end of this year.

In the statement, signed by Cori president Miguel Marques, the body said it had not received any formal request from Corinthians’ board to evaluate a “proposal for the creation of a Football Public Limited Company.” The statement refers to information recently released by SAFiel, a project that revealed it had been informed by president Osmar Stabile that he would seek Cori’s authorization to sign the non-binding memorandum, a document that would pave the way for the institutional debate on the proposal.

The statement also reinforces the reporting previously published by Meu Timão, which indicated that the issue was not part of Monday’s meeting agenda. In addition, as Miguel Marques himself had informed the press, the matter would also not be discussed under the “miscellaneous” item, reserved for general topics.

Another point highlighted by Cori was that the meeting took place in “absolute normality,” fully respecting the previously established agenda. The statement also says that, although the board had been informed about the meeting, president Osmar Stabile did not attend.

This version, however, differs from the information obtained by the Central do Timão report on the night of last Monday (27). According to the report’s findings, Osmar Stabile attended only the final part of the meeting, but the issue involving SAFiel was not discussed among the council members.

Without any deliberation on SAFiel’s proposal, the non-binding memorandum still has no timetable to be reviewed by the club’s internal bodies. In the current administration’s view, this step is considered necessary before the president can formally sign the document.

Read the full statement released by Cori:

“The Orientation Council – CORI hereby publicly informs and clarifies that it has not received any request from the executive board for analysis of a proposal for the creation of a Football Public Limited Company – SAF.

It also informs that yesterday’s meeting (27.07) took place in absolute normality, in compliance with the existing agenda, and even though the board had been informed of the meeting, it did not include the presence of the President of Sport Club Corinthians Paulista.”
