Simão Coutinho, a manager at Al Nassr, had witnessed their exchanges, he specified.

Philippe Coutinho treina durante folga, e Santos sonha com estreia em clássico contra o São Paulo. O meia de 34 anos tem treinado diariamente no CT Rei Pelé em uma programação especial. Enquanto o restante do elenco recebeu 4 dias de folga e retorna amanhã, Coutinho segue trabalhando para evoluir após 7 meses sem atuar. O Peixe acompanha a evolução do jogador antes de definir prazo, mas não descarta sua estreia contra o São Paulo, no próximo dia 2. 🗞️ @UOL | @unollima 📸 Raul Baretta/SFC #Coutinho #SantosFC #SãoPauloFC

⚠️ Para salvar projeto dos "galácticos", Santos faz contas e torce por G-9 no Brasileirão. A eliminação para o Atlético-MG na Sul-Americana colocou em risco o caro planejamento do Peixe para voltar à Libertadores. Arthur, Cebolinha, Coutinho, Rodinei e Lima chegaram com salários altos e contratos curtos. Com a eliminação, o Brasileirão virou o único caminho para a meta. O Santos precisa somar pontos e torcer por resultados favoráveis nas copas. • O CENÁRIO INICIAL: 7 VAGAS PARA O BRASIL A CBF prevê 7 vagas na Libertadores. Pelo Brasileirão, os 4 primeiros vão à fase de grupos e o 5º à pré-Libertadores. Na Copa do Brasil, o campeão vai aos grupos e o vice à pré. • DUAS VAGAS EXTRAS PELO BRASILEIRÃO O G-5 pode virar G-6 se Flamengo, Fluminense ou Palmeiras ganhar a Libertadores e terminar no G-5 do Brasileirão. O G-7 pode surgir se o Palmeiras, atual vice-líder, terminar no G-5 — ou G-6 no cenário anterior — e também ganhar a Copa do Brasil, em que está na semifinal com Atlético-MG, Grêmio e Vasco. • TORCIDA PELO GALO O Atlético-MG pode ampliar a zona. Se terminar no hipotético G-7 e ganhar a Sul-Americana, abre o G-8. Se também chegar à final da Copa do Brasil, a classificação pelo Brasileirão pode virar G-9. O Santos tem 35 pontos e está em 10º na tabela. 🗞️ @UOL | @unollima 📸 Raul Baretta/SFC #SantosFC #Brasileirão #Libertadores

Apuração com @PodCruzmaltino e @AmadeuVasco: O Vasco optou por adotar um modelo comum em clubes europeus na questão de redes sociais. Recentemente, o perfil oficial parou de seguir alguns jogadores, como Coutinho e Rayan, por exemplo. O motivo é simples: a partir de agora, o perfil do Instagram do Clube só seguirá jogadores do atual elenco, patrocinadores e perfis relacionados ao Vasco, como o perfil do associativo, por exemplo. A única exceção é o perfil de Roberto Dinamite, maior ídolo da história do clube. A título de curiosidade, nem os perfis do presidente Pedrinho e de Felipe integram a lista de "seguindo". #Vasco #RedesSociais #Futebol

En el mercado de enero, River acordó con Olimpia una PRIORIDAD de COMPRA por PEDRO ZARZA, el paraguayo que hoy clavó este golazo. OJO a este pibe, que si sigue así River puede tener PRIORIDAD de COMPRA antes que el BAYERN MUNICH por el Coutinho Guaraní. https://t.co/s8Fe8UPHpI #RiverPlate #Fútbol #Transferencias

🚨 Agora! Santos teme colapso financeiro após fracassar com "plano all-in". A eliminação para o Atlético-MG na Sul-Americana fez o Peixe deixar de faturar 800 mil dólares (R$ 4,1 milhões) pela semifinal, além de uma bilheteria que elevaria a perda para mais de R$ 5 milhões. Se fosse campeão, receberia outros US$ 10 milhões (R$ 50 milhões). A diretoria adotou ESTRATÉGIA DE RISCO e apostou na Sul-Americana para bancar reforços, que aumentaram uma folha já alta. Rodinei, Arthur, Lima, Philippe Coutinho e Everton Cebolinha estão entre os contratados. Agora, sem receitas suficientes, o Santos faz contas para pagar uma folha salarial de quase R$ 30 MILHÕES POR MÊS e teme colapso financeiro. O clube deve uma parcela de direitos de imagem aos jogadores, que pode representar até 40% dos ganhos de cada atleta, e não tem dinheiro para pagar a próxima, que vence dia 20. O Santos admitiu a dívida, mas afirmou estar em dia com salários em carteira e FGTS. A situação também impede a troca dos gramados da Vila Belmiro e do CT Rei Pelé, orçada em pouco mais de R$ 11 milhões. A diretoria busca investidor ou acordo com empresa. A World Sports, que cuida do gramado, não recebe há 5 MESES. Para viabilizar as últimas contratações, a NR Sports, empresa da família de Neymar, assumiu dívida de R$ 12 milhões do Santos com o Monaco por Jean Lucas, em troca de espaços do uniforme. O Santos fechou o 2º trimestre com déficit 62% acima do orçado e dívida superior a R$ 1,2 BILHÃO. A diretoria também admitiu que pagará R$ 17,3 milhões a Zé Rafael pela rescisão do contrato, em 48 parcelas de R$ 361 mil. Em 10º no Brasileirão, o Peixe terá mais 12 jogos para tentar uma vaga na pré-Libertadores. 🗞️ @placar 📸 Reinaldo Campos/SFC #SantosFC #ColapsoFinanceiro #FutebolBrasileiro
