Corinthians prepare for Chapecoense as women’s image rights delay and Turma da Mônica tie-in announced | OneFootball

Corinthians completed their final session on Saturday ahead of facing Chapecoense in the 26th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. The match is on Sunday, 6 September, at 19:30, at Neo Química Arena.

According to Meu Timao, the board missed its deadline to clear overdue image rights for the women’s squad. President Osmar Stabile had promised payment by Friday, which had not happened at the time of writing.

To mark Mauricio de Sousa’s 90 years, Corinthians and Turma da Mônica have agreed a licensing partnership. The first activation will take place during Sunday’s game.

Striker Yuri Alberto is a confirmed absentee for Chapecoense, a concern given the team’s output drops 15.4% without him.

In goal, Hugo Souza is unavailable and youngster Kauê is expected to start.

André Ramalho returned to partial training on Saturday after almost a month out with labyrinthitis.

On Friday, the futsal side beat Ferroviária Pinda 3-2 at Wlamir Marques, ending a run of two rounds without a win in the Campeonato Paulista de Futsal and keeping a 100% home record.

The Brabinhas’ coach judged the national campaign strong despite a semi-final exit and an inability to defend the 2025 title.

Corinthians’ attacking numbers in this Brasileiro remain a concern, with one of the worst tallies in the league and little threat created.
