The phrase “Corinthians will not go crazy” always comes up when the club tries to sign a great contract, I can cite some examples, but I will take this opportunity to talk about Guilherme Arana.
On the positive side, the left-back scored a goal and was one of Atlético-MG’s highlights this Saturday, against Timão. Shortly after the final whistle at the Neo Química Arena, he found out about his call-up for the Brazilian team, which is contesting the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers.
So, come on … For those of you who don’t remember, Arana was about to return to Corinthians last season, when he was still defending Sevilla, from Spain. During the complicated negotiation, the Alvinegro leaders nailed that they would not do anything crazy to repatriate the boy. And it was expensive!
The defender alone did not return to CT Joaquim Grava due to obstacles in the form of payment. According to the club and Arana himself, everything was settled, but the details prevented a happy ending.
“The bags were ready last season, only Sevilla did not accept the Corinthians payment method”said Arana, in an interview with SBT, last week.
I even understand it, spending just over R $ 30 million to bring in an athlete launched by Corinthians himself and who until recently was at the club is something complicated. But, given the level of possible reinforcement, it would be worth the risk.
Arana would arrive not only to be the absolute holder of Timão, but also to be the best of his position in the country, something that is happening right now. Besides being a winger, he also manages to be a great option for the left side of attack and even for the creation of his team (characteristics that São Paulo lacks).
So good planning could have made a difference for Corinthians this year. The board did not spend around R $ 30 million to repatriate the offspring of its base, but paid R $ 3.6 million to bring in Sidcley, who played little and is no longer part of the cast of Vagner Mancini.
Still thinking about the left side of Corinthians, names like Léo Natel, Everaldo, Jonathan Cafú, Matheus Davó and Otero also arrived at Parque São Jorge.
And, for those who have no money, what was the price of this game counting salaries and transfers? I’m not sure, but I guarantee that it was a considerable amount and that it could have been applied in the negotiation by Guilherme Arana, facilitating the search for “an ideal form of payment.” There was no effort.
Corinthians shouldn’t go into debt right now, but they need conviction to at least leave the team competitive. It is necessary to think and put on paper what we can really call “reinforcement” for Timão. You have to risk it!
I talked a lot about the current Atlético-MG jersey 13, but this season we also had the telenovela by striker Michael, who would possibly come out without great difficulties in this Mancini team.
A good investment can avoid small frustrations in the future. Recent hires show that Corinthians can do crazy things.
