In a moment of uncertainty regarding the soccer schedule, paralyzed due to the coronavirus and still without a date to resume, Cruzeiro sees that the situation worsens with the fall in income. Like other clubs, Raposa is going through a time of restlessness and financial crisis, but with the aggravating circumstance of having reduced income due to the dispute of the Brazilian Serie B, which means less income from television fees.
With profuse doubts, the incumbent president, Jos Dalai Rocha, admits that the exit, at this moment, is only one: selling players. The interim club and governing council commander said Cruzeiro would have to ditch some of its top players to increase cash and still honor outstanding debts.
“We have debts that have not been paid for years and are past due. We have no alternative, we need to make cash. Now, how to collect, where, if the sources of income are paralyzed? Only with player sale. So, yes, we are studying proposals for our jewelry, which fortunately are not few, and we will have to sell them, “said Dalai, in an interview with SportsCenterof ESPN Brazil.
Among the core players, called ‘jewels’ by the coach and who are most valued at Cruzeiro, are defender Cac, who established himself in the main team last year, including with relegation Srie B, and owner Maurcio. , who also gained space in the previous season.
CORRUPTION
Dalai Rocha took the opportunity to criticize the previous administration of former President Wagner Pires de S, who according to him raised the debts to stratospheric values and left the club in a “dangerous” situation. The current commander also regretted the fact that Cruzeiro lost space in the field and became the target of corruption investigations, with negative repercussions even abroad.
“In the last administration, the price we paid was too high. The money evaporated like alcohol in the wind. Whoever is responsible for this must apologize, since the price was high. The cruise ship is in a dangerous and difficult position. Cruzeiro was so wounded that today in international soccer entities, the star that we always venerate, marks the most prominent and important and dramatic case of corruption in the world. Our reputation today symbolizes the largest corruption case in South American soccer, “he stressed.
