Corinthians do not intend to keep Cássio and analyze the possibility of paying tribute to the goalkeeper with his departure

To preserve the image and idolatry of Timão's number 12, president Augusto Melo is cautiously negotiating with Cássio and his businesspeople. Corinthians waives the fine and it seems that the contract termination with the goalkeeper is getting closer and closer to happening.

Corinthians does not want to make negotiations difficult

The 36-year-old goalkeeper already has an agreement with Cruzeiro, so he intends to terminate his contract so he can be released and play for the Minas Gerais team as soon as possible. Corinthians' intention is not to resist termination, paying the full amount of the fine to release the goalkeeper is not in the Timão board's plans.

The priority for Augusto Melo, president of Corinthians, is to value the player's image and his relationship with the fans and the club, and to show gratitude for the entire history that the athlete built within the black and white team. Carlos Leite, Cássio's manager, also sees that creating a conflict at this time would be bad for everyone.

After a few meetings, the player and club must meet again to agree on values ​​and close an agreement to enable the athlete's departure. Cássio could give up amounts that he still has to receive from the club to avoid complications and facilitate his departure.

Possibility of tributes with the departure of the idol

With Cássio's departure, the club president wants to pay some tribute to the player, such as making a bust of the goalkeeper, but normally this tribute is paid to former players and Cássio will not retire, he will still be able to face the black and white player playing for Cruise.

The Corinthians marketing team will only collaborate on tributes as soon as the player's departure is certain, for now these plans are nothing more than conversations in the marketing department.

While his contractual issues are not resolved, Cássio continues training normally with the group. Corinthians would take the field again on Sunday, to face Botafogo, but due to the interruption of the Brazilian championship, Timão will only play on Wednesday, in the Copa do Brasil, against América-RN.
