According to the newspaper “O Globo”, Flamengo will return to retract the agreement he made with Paulo Sousa after he was sacked due to poor results. The Rio de Janeiro club will send the documents on Friday … in numbers lower than those stipulated, which has angered the Portuguese coach and the technical team involved. According to the Brazilian newspaper, Paulo Sousa is even considering turning to FIFA to litigate the dispute.

Urubu pledged to pay 1.1 million euros in installments to Paulo Sousa [os restantes elementos da equipa técnica também terão direito a uma compensação monetária, claro!], but would have come back and suggested a discount for that amount. On the other hand, Flamengo has also proposed making payments in Brazil, a model that former employees will accept only if the debt is settled in one go. However, due to the fact that the debt is paid in installments, Paulo Sousa and his technical team want to deposit the money in Portugal, so that they can close their bank accounts in Brazil before returning to Europe.
