Corinthians will pay a fine to have Hugo Souza against Flamengo

Hugo Souza has become an important part of the Corinthians squad in this sequence of qualifications in the South American and Brazilian Cups and in the fight against relegation in the Brazilian Championship. However, as the player is on loan from Flamengo to the São Paulo club, he will have to pay a clause of R$500,000 to keep the goalkeeper among the starting players for Sunday's game against Flamengo at NeoQuimica Arena at 4 pm. The amount must be paid if Corinthians wants to use the goalkeeper among the starting players and is valid for all occasions in which Flamengo and Corinthians face each other.

Since his arrival, the goalkeeper has been important to the team

The goalkeeper was signed on loan from Flamengo until the end of the year for 200 thousand euros (1.19 million reais). To have the goalkeeper permanently in the squad, Timão will have to pay around 4 million reais for 50% of the goalkeeper's transfer, which is the intention of the black and white board.
