In negotiations a few weeks ago due to debt related to the signing of Christian Cueva, the two teams hope to conclude the negotiation soon
Santos hopes to be able to reach an agreement with the Krasnodar, from Russia, and avoid a new transfer ban from FIFA. Peixe still needs to pay the US$4 million debt relating to the hiring of Christian Cueva.
Alexandre Gallo, the club’s football coordinator, spoke about the negotiations after a meeting at the São Paulo Football Federation. The director expressed optimism with the outcome of the negotiations and awaits FIFA’s decision.

“We are still in a negotiation process. In the morning we had a meeting with them. We believe that this week we should finish“, said Gallo.
The management of Marcelo Teixeira is trying several alternatives, the latest being a proposal for installments, but the Russians remain unyielding. Krasnodar management will only accept an offer, other than full payment of the debt, if it involves a player. Creditors’ favorite name is that of the defender Joaquim.
The management of Alvinegro Praiano offered the defender Messiah and signaled that they are willing to give in Morelos, however, both names were rejected. If an agreement is not defined, FIFA will punish Santos with another Transfer Ban.
