In an interview with Banda B radio, in Curitiba, this Sunday morning, the leader said that the attacker does not train with the group until it is determined if the photos of Sassá are from Saturday night. The photos, according to him, were forwarded to the legal department and, in case of confirmation, they said that the contract with the player can be terminated. Sassá is on loan from Cruzeiro.
– If these photos are true, the player no longer plays at Coritiba.
Pelaipe also said that coach Jorginho and club president Samir Namur have already been informed of the decision.
– When you play in a club you have to be committed. If this party really took place yesterday (Saturday), she did not respect the directive, her co-workers and the fans.
