“Today my contract expires at the end of the year. If by chance we make it two years [de renovação] and arrive at the end of next year [e não der certo]… I will call the club and say: ‘that’s all for me, thanks, now let’s look at another phase’. I don’t want to be a burden, understand? As long as I continue to take the field and give what the club wants [vou seguir]”, said Renato.

During the conversation, Renato Augusto also stated that, due to the current political scenario of Corinthians, which will face elections in December, there is still no talk of a possible contract renewal.

“There is no conversation, there is no conversation. Let’s leave the question open, especially because there will be an election. It’s a different year than normal, so I haven’t been contacted. Let’s see what will happen. I just don’t want to be a burden, especially here. For my story, for everything I have experienced”, said the athlete.

“It was scary when I came back [da China]. Coming back, and since I had spent practically eight months without playing, and I was already 33 at the time, I said: ‘guys, I’m returning to a club where I have a beautiful history. where I have achieved results, what if I can’t get back to the level the fans expect?’ So I almost had doubts,” he added.

When asked about his physical condition for another season, the player said he could continue: “today is good”.

Corinthians, with Renato Augusto involved, takes to the field this Thursday against Fluminense at the Maracanã, in a match valid for the 27th day of the Brazilian Championship. Timão needs a win to move away from the relegation zone.
