With a contract valid until June this year, the player revealed in an interview after the match that he spoke with Augusto Melo, president of the club, and Fabinho Soldado, football executive, to extend his contract.

– There was a first conversation with the president (Augusto) and Fabinho (football executive). I already had a conversation with Fabinho before, and now another with him and the president. I leave it to them and my manager to resolve, because I don’t feel comfortable talking about contractual issues, I’ve never done that in my career. I’m waiting for the situation that my manager will give me, I’ll probably have a conversation with him tomorrow, but I believe and hope that it will be a happy ending for both sides – said Paulinho.

Afterwards, the midfielder explained the length of the contract offered by the Corinthians board, which has the desire to renew with the athlete.

– It was not a specific time (renewal period). What they gave me was a contract until the end of the year. It also involves other things that I passed on to them when I had the opportunity to speak. Now I passed the situation on to my representative so they could talk to each other and resolve it – he concluded.
