However, in his words, he said that the ‘priority is getting to know the players’. - At the moment, our focus is paying athletes on time. There are two images delayed, now this week we are paying for one image, one is still open - he said. The end date of the third month has not yet been defined. However, he highlighted that São Paulo wants to reimburse these amounts ‘as quickly as possible’. - On April 30th there will be another pass. Our goal is to process this payment as quickly as possible and will always try to keep athletes updated. This is fundamental for us – he added. The removal of Água Santa would have helped with the complexity of the financial issue. Eliminated in the quarter-finals, São Paulo lost both the box office and the value it received in the ratings – not to mention its potential final prize. In fact, the club's budget goals showed that, just as had happened in the previous two years, Tricolor would reach the State final. In total, the club lost around R$10 million. Another high-profile defeat came in the Copa Sudamericana final, last year, against Independiente Del Valle. Considered the big favorite for the title, Tricolor was left out of the championship, being left without almost R$30 million – which it would have received in prize money. This money is considered one of the club's main objectives on the continent, in addition to making up for the shortage of important titles that has persisted since 2012. This is not the first time that these delays have occurred. Last year, something happened during the second half of the year.
