Corinthians have a headache because of Depay's 'luxury' expenses

Corinthians are in a difficult position with their high-profile signing Memphis Depay.

Corinthians are in a difficult position with their high-profile signing Memphis Depay.

According to UOL Esporte , the Brazilian team asked the Dutch star to leave the luxury hotel he was staying at and find a cheaper place to stay. The reason is that the cost is up to 46,000 USD per month, not including a series of additional services that the club has to pay.

This huge sum includes not only the room fee but also catering, cleaning, personal butler, personal chef, personal security, armored car and private driver. All of which will be borne by Corinthians, according to the terms of Depay's contract.

The source said that the club's management felt that this financial burden was unsustainable in the long term. They tried to convince Depay to leave the hotel and move to more suitable accommodation. However, this was not easy to do, because the Dutch player did not want to give up the facilities guaranteed in the original agreement.

Depay joined Corinthians with the hope of becoming the new symbol of the team, but his failure to make a big mark on the field has made the issue of spending even more noticeable. In the context of Corinthians's tight finances, spending tens of thousands of dollars a month on a player in decline is something that fans and managers find difficult to accept.

The case is becoming a hot topic in Brazil, as Corinthians face the question: is Depay's professional value enough to justify the lavish lifestyle they are paying?
