On loan from Flamengo, Hugo Souza did not prevent Corinthians from being eliminated in the Copa do Brasil
It looks like a repeated film, but it’s not: Flamengo eliminated the Corinthians in another Brazilian Cup. With a 1-0 victory on aggregate, Rubro-Negro dispatched the São Paulo team and reached the final of the competition. Now, another film that repeats itself, is Itaquera’s team accumulating debt. After all, between the two games, the team needs to pay R$1 million to Fla, due to the selection of goalkeeper Hugo Souza.
Fundamental piece of CorinthiansHugo originally belongs to Flamengo and is on loan to the São Paulo team. Because of this, to play him against Rubro-Negro, the black and white board paid a fine of R$500,000 in each of the games. It is worth noting that the amount relating to the raid this Sunday (20) has not yet been paid and has a deadline of 24 hours to be paid.
WHAT IF CORINTHIANS DOESN’T PAY?
As stipulated in the contract, the São Paulo team is obliged to pay the payments if they wish to purchase Hugo. It is worth highlighting, in fact, that the Corinthians I already wanted to have finalized the definitive arrival of the goalkeeper. However, Fla did not accept the guarantees offered by the São Paulo board. After all, the guarantee would be linked to Brax, the same company used to purchase Matheuzinho. In the case of the side, the black and white team delayed payment of installments.
Now, with Hugo and the debt to be paid, the Corinthians There is still one more concern: the z-4. Eliminated from the Copa do Brasil, the team will still try to save itself from relegation in the Brasileirão. This is because, currently, the team occupies 17th position, with 32 points.
FLAMENGO SEASON SEQUENCE
Now a finalist in the Copa do Brasil, Flamengo will face Atlético-MG in the decision. The team from Minas Gerais beat Vasco, with an aggregate score of 3 to 2. It is worth noting that the decisive games take place on the 3rd and 10th of November, however, the order of matches has not yet been defined.
Meanwhile, in the Brasileirão, Flamengo is in fourth place. With 51 points, Rubro-Negro still has a mathematical chance of winning the title, but they know that the situation is difficult. This is because Botafogo, the current leader, has ten more points. In this competition, Fla returns to the field on Saturday (26), facing Juventude, at Maracanã.
Corinthians Go Home Empty-Handed as Flamengo Pulls the Rug Again!
Ah, the Copa do Brasil: where dreams are crushed and hopes dashed quicker than a Netflix subscription in a family fight! It’s that time again when Flamengo plays the role of the villain, creeping in and snatching the prize away from the Corinthians with a delightful 1-0 victory on aggregate. That’s right; it’s a classic Brazilian Cup plot twist worthy of a soap opera—who’s getting eliminated next week?
Corinthians: In Debt to the Old Flame
Now, that’s not all, folks! In a plot twist that would make even M. Night Shyamalan blink, thanks to the loan agreement for their star player, Hugo Souza, the Corinthians are left holding the bag. In a brilliantly audacious narrative move, they now owe Flamengo a cool R$1 million. Yes, you heard right—a million! It’s like their accountant is in league with a telenovela writer. And all for the privilege of playing their own player against Flamengo. How’s that for a twist, eh? Oh, the irony of ‘borrowing’ your own player and going broke in the process!
Fine Print? More Like Fine Comedy!
Here’s the kicker: for each game that Mr. Hugo struts his stuff against the very club he belongs to, Corinthians had to fork out an eye-watering R$500,000. It’s astonishing; that’s more than some people make in a year to be stuck in a gym losing weight for a beach holiday!
But wait, there’s more drama in this real-life football soap! As Hugo’s performance might have kept them in the game, the payment for his services has yet to be settled. As we speak, the Corinthians board is likely doing their best impression of a mime, frantically waving their hands about as they scramble for the cash. “You’ve got 24 hours, boys!” Flamengo is practically tapping their wrists and grinning like a Cheshire cat watching their next meal.
What Happens if Corinthians Default? Spoiler Alert!
Of course, if the Corinthians can’t cough up the payment, there’ll be more fun and games. It’s stipulated in the contract that they must pay up if they want to make Hugo a permanent fixture. They were already keen as mustard to secure the goalkeeper, but Flamengo politely declined their ‘somewhat dubious’ guarantees—linked to a company that may as well have been run by a bunch of lost tourists trying to find their way to the beach.
And as if this wasn’t enough, let’s turn our attention to their current league positioning. They’re sitting precariously in 17th place, one more misstep and they could be relegated faster than you can say “losing streak.” Someone hand them a lifebuoy!
Flamengo: The Steely-eyed Gladiators
Meanwhile, Flamengo is on a roll! As they prepare to face Atlético-MG in the Copa do Brasil final, their calendar is red-hot with excitement. I can already hear the dramatic music playing in the background as Flamengo struts onto the field, chins up, ready to tackle another challenge.
Flamengo is currently fourth in the Brasileirão—ten points behind the leaders Botafogo. This gives them that tiny flicker of hope that, just like a bad cold, they might yet catch up. Their next match against Juventude is about as eagerly awaited as a sequel nobody asked for but still watches out of pure curiosity!
In Conclusion…
As the curtains draw on another chapter of the Copa do Brasil, one can only watch the drama unfold with a mix of laughter and sympathy. The Corinthians, in their clumsy performance and financial shambles, should be taking notes from the comedy greats—because let’s be real, this whole saga has ‘laughing stock’ written all over it!
So, football fans, as we resonate with the sorrow of the Corinthians, let’s remember: every great story needs a villain, and Flamengo certainly knows how to play that role with style. Until next time—keep the popcorn ready; the football saga continues!
