Corinthians captain shares details of chat with football executive | OneFootball

Corinthians has been undergoing changes behind the scenes since the arrival of football executive Marcelo Paz, who is responsible for signings and direct leadership with the Alvinegro squad.

One of Corinthians’ captains, Hugo Souza, revealed in an interview with GE details of the conversation he had with the executive, asking for complete honesty from the professional: “We had a meeting with him, and Paz showed himself to be a very truthful guy. That’s something we’ve always taken seriously in meetings with the president and the board. The only thing we value here is the truth, whether it’s good or bad news. And Marcelo seems to be that guy, who from the start has shown us just that.”

The goalkeeper also praised Marcelo Paz’s early work in signings. So far, only Gabriel Paulista has been officially announced, but Pedro Milans, right-back, and Matheus Pereira, midfielder, are about to be announced: “We welcomed him, understanding that he was the best choice for the club, and he’s going to help us a lot. He’s already been helping, he’s already managed to sign players… Now it’s about supporting those who are arriving, because we’re sure that everyone coming in is here to help. That’s how we’re going to face everything, bringing everyone together. Uniting more and more. We have many goals. We want to be victorious again like we were last year.”

Hugo Souza and the Corinthians squad will take the field on Thursday night (15th), when Corinthians faces Bragantino in a match valid for the second round of the 2026 Paulista Championship.
