Milan Weigh FIFA Appeal as Corinthians Stall on €17m André Deal

Club officials in Brazil dispute previously signed paperwork.

Overview

  • Reports indicate Milan reached a €15m plus €2m add-ons agreement to buy 70% of André’s rights with a 20% future‑profit clause.
  • Corinthians president Osmar Stabile has withheld final approval as he seeks better terms under pressure from supporters.
  • Coach Dorival Junior has publicly opposed a mid-season sale, arguing the fee is too low for the 19-year-old midfielder.
  • Milan believe documents signed by Corinthians’ legal department make the deal binding and are prepared to take the case to FIFA or CAS if it remains blocked.
  • Legal experts suggest any ruling would more likely grant financial compensation than force a transfer, with the move previously targeted for July 1 after the World Cup.
