Cruzeiro’s Lawyers to Defend Gerson in Dispute with Flamengo

Owner of Cruzeiro’s SAF, Pedrinho enters the conflict route between Flamengo and Gerson. The executive made the lawyers of the Minas Gerais club available to the player’s staff in the lawsuit that Rubro-Negro will file in court regarding a clause about image rights.

According to a report by Coluna do Fla, Pedrinho BH is willing to provide all necessary support to Gerson. Thus, one way is to release Cruzeiro’s lawyers to defend the player against Flamengo.

Rubro-Negro will take Gerson to court to demand about R$ 40 million. This is because the contract between the club and the player had a clause that stipulated the payment of this type of “termination penalty” regarding image rights if either party broke the agreement.

IS GERSON’S STAFF UPSET WITH FLAMENGO?

Also according to the report by Coluna do Fla, the staff of Gerson was quite upset by the leak to the press of a confidential document by members of Flamengo’s board. Thus, the player and Rubro-Negro are “at war” behind the scenes, now with Cruzeiro stepping in to defend their newly signed player.

DID THE BAD RELATIONSHIP LEAD TO THE LAWSUIT?

The way the player’s staff behaved in negotiations with Zenit greatly bothered José Boto and even president Bap. Not by chance, the club is going to court to demand about R$ 40 million for the image rights clause.

According to what Coluna do Fla also found out, Flamengo does not include this clause in all contracts. Furthermore, the board does not usually go to court to demand compliance with this contractual item.
