The document, which was made available on Corinthians’ official website this Tuesday, shows that two teams still need to transfer amounts to Timão as it is the athlete’s training club. Zenit, from Russia, owes R$1.68 million, while Al-Hilal, from Saudi Arabia, where it is currently located, owes R$7.35 million, totaling around R$9.03 million.
