Sergio Santos Rodrigues, president of Cruzeiro, assured in an interview with TV Mafia Azul that the club will have to pay a debt for transfers.
A few days ago, Ronaldo Nazario took 90% of the shares of the Cruzeiro club, that is, he became the head of the Brazilian club. The former Real Madrid player disbursed more than $ 70 million, 400 million reais, but that amount could increase in the coming months, the newspaper publishes AS from Spain.
Sergio Santos Rodrigues, president of Cruzeiro, assured in an interview with TV Mafia Azul that the club will have to pay a debt of 50 million ($ 8′700,000) to FIFA although Ronaldo will assume the amount out of his own pocket.
“He (Ronaldo) will pay the debt. In theory, the deficit belongs to the association but you have to pay if there is no football. Next year we will have another large outlay for the signing of Rodriguinho, which was bought and once again was not paid. If I was not wrong, they are more than 30 million ($ 5’200,000) ”, said Santos Rodrigues.
The Brazilian team has a debt of 20 million ($ 3,500,000) for the transfers between Riascos, with Mazatlán, and Arrascaeta. To that amount must be added the 30 million from Rodriguinho, who is now playing for Bahia.
“As a supporter of Cruzeiro and current president, Ronaldo as an investor and you as fans, we want to ensure a smooth operation next year, without delays in salaries and sanctions in FIFA. It is the investment made over time that will guarantee our sports performance in 2022 ″, concluded the president of Cruzeiro. (D)
