Orlando Rollo, president of Peixe, outlined the black scenario of the club’s economic situation and will pressure the Deliberative Council to accept Benfica’s € 6.5 million proposal by the central defender

At a press conference, Orlando Rollo, president of Santos, admitted this Friday that the sale of Lucas Veríssimo is the only way to pay off a debt of 54 million reais (about € 8.5 M) and that he will put pressure on the Deliberative Council from São Paulo to accept Benfica’s proposal of € 6.5 million from the central defender. “Santos needs to negotiate Lucas Veríssimo. Santos cannot survive until January if he does not negotiate the player. We have a short-term debt, between salaries and debts in FIFA, of approximately R $ 54 million. Only now Benfica is about to give up the deal. If we can’t sell Lucas Veríssimo, I don’t see an economic solution. It’s not the worst deal in the world.

It should be remembered that the Deliberative Council of Santos, responsible for the management of the club until the next elections, did not approve the transfer after meeting last Tuesday.
