The Planet of Football reported, citing ge and Novaes Rocha, that Corinthians failed to sign Renê, the top scorer from Vitória, due to a lack of R$ 400,000. According to the publication, months earlier the club had reached an agreement with Portuguesa for the striker but halted the negotiation at the signing stage due to insufficient funds. The publication stated that Renê would have one of the lowest salaries on the black-and-white roster and that the decision was made during a week of political discussions among councilors regarding the club's budget. Without the agreement, the player went to Vitória. The amount of R$ 400,000 would correspond, according to the report, to about half the monthly salary of several Corinthians players who didn't even sit on the bench. #Corinthians #FutebolBrasileiro #Transferências (translated)
