Augusto Melo, president of Corinthians, denies the entrepreneur and closes the ‘Gabigol issue’

Timão’s representative revealed contacts with the red-black council and explained the details of the negotiation

Augusto Melo, president of Corinthians, once again commented on the club’s interest in Gabigol, and denied Júnior Pedroso, the player’s agent, who in recent days had revealed that he had not negotiated with Timão’s management.

In an interview with CNN, the agent explained why Alvinegro backed down in his attempt to sign the AC Milan number 10 and explained the details of the negotiation.

– How can I give up something if there was nothing? It does not make sense. If I gave up it’s because there was something, right? He (Gabigol’s coach) needs to explain himself better if he has never had one. There was, obviously there was. Everything was going well. But there is also a limit, Corinthians is bigger than all the others, I will always fight for my institution – explained the president.

Augusto subsequently ruled out the possibility of Gabigol signing a pre-contract mid-season. The athlete has a contract with Flamengo until the end of 2023 and could arrive at the Parque São Jorge club on a free transfer.

He had conversations, he was sent. When things start in a certain way they lose their charm, and Corinthians are already looking for other characteristics, Corinthians are already adapting to other situations. It was good when it started, then it went away and I think Corinthians should move on. Corinthians will never be hostage to anything – concluded Augusto Melo.
