In addition to Corinthians’ teammates and the national team, former midfielder Vampeta and former striker Luizão were also partners outside the four lines. In 2001, the athletes met and bought part of the economic rights of former right-back Maurinho.
Maurinho still stood out when Luizão and Vampeta acquired 50% of the athlete’s economic rights. Edílson was also invited to Luizão to be part of the agreement, but he did not accept.
“The one who accomplished this was my brother Jocimar, who was also a player, played for Novorizontino. I saw Maurinho playing for Rio Preto, in a National-SP x Rio Preto game. He impressed me with his physical strength. Rio Preto had two less and was running from one side to the other. I invited Vampeta and Edílson to buy it with me, they were R $ 100 thousand, but only Vampeta agreed“Luizão revealed in an interview with GloboEsporte.com.

There he won the triple crown , came to the Brazilian team. Unfortunately, after suffering knee injuries, he underwent complicated surgery in São Paulo, “he said.
As he was still playing for Corinthians when he invested in Maurinho, the two ended up meeting on the field. The opportunity was unique, when Corinthians and Jundiaí tied 2-2, neither of them shook the net. The Corinthians also said that he was not in the habit of going after clubs, which were very popular.
“I did not sit down with a club to negotiate Maurinho, but many people came to make me a proposal. The Corinthians knew everything. For Cruzeiro, the agent was Daniel Pereira. But Maurinho was very good, he used to work alone”, finished
