Flamengo and Paulo Sousa would have reached an agreement for the termination of the coach’s contract after a few days reviewing all the amounts to be paid
O Flamengo managed to put an end to the story of the termination of contract with the coachPaulo Sousa. According to information from the website “EXTRA”, club and coach signed this Tuesday, 21, the end of the bond between the parties, but only after a true marathon of reviewing values, which lasted the other days.
Thus, Paulo Sousa, who worked until mid-June, will receive seven months of his salary in the form of a fine, in the same way as his technical commission. The publication highlights that this amount reaches the total contract year, as agreed by the parties at the time of contracting, in January.

However, this unplanned change in command will yield the Rio club a good value outside the coffers. To give you an idea, the coach alone will receive 1 million euros, about R$5.5 million, not to mention the members of his coaching staff, who should receive an equivalent amount, but added together. So, in total, the Flamengo will pay almost R$ 12 million in cash.
After weeks of imbroglio on the subject, Flamengo was threatened by the coach to have the situation taken to FIFA, and because of that he quickly pulled the strings and solved what was missing. Because of this, Rubro-Negro would have finalized this Monday, the 20th, the minutes of the transfer agreement and deposited the amount this Tuesday.
The publication even highlights that there was a fear that the group would not receive payment before the trip back to the European country, which was scheduled to take place this Tuesday, and therefore had to be rescheduled for this Wednesday, 22. With the terms being aligned, only the details were lacking in the calculation of the FGTS values to close the agreement once and for all.

the twist
After having their agreement approved by the parties on Friday, 17th, Paulo Sousa and his assistants had scheduled the trip to Portugal, but ended up being surprised by a new proposal from the carioca club. According to information published by the newspaper “Globo” on Sunday, 19, Flamengo suggested lower values than those provided for in the contract.
The team’s idea was to pay the bills of Portuguese professionals in their respective homes, outside Brazil, which would end up delaying the transfer even further. It was precisely because of this attitude that the coach threatened to go to FIFA to demand full payment and, if possible, in the bank account still open in Brazil.
