Ronaldo found a problem in closing the purchase of Cruzeiro at the last minute.

Sao Paulo, March 17 The former Brazilian striker Ronaldo Nazário faces a last-minute problem in completing the acquisition of Cruzeiro after calling for a change in the purchase agreement that caused doubts among some club executives. The current turning point comes from a tax debt of 200 million R (about 40 million dollars), which was initially unexpected, in addition to other great obligations that Belo Horizonte assumed in the complex in recent years. 'O Fenômeno' said on the Twitch channel on Tuesday night that “if you don't pay debts, your assets are at risk.” Ronaldo, the owner of Real Valladolid in Spain, is willing to take on the tax debt of Cruzeiro, but in return he wants the club to grant ownership of the team training centers (Toca I and Toca II). “This allows us to guarantee that Cruzeiro will not lose 'toka' and that there will be no shortage of places to train.” He said. “Without these guarantees, it is very difficult to continue the project, so we have to speed it up.” He warned. The agreement between Ronaldo and Cruzeiro, one of Brazil's great clubs that are being dragged into the 2nd division today, was announced on December 18, and the deadline for the final closure of the business expires on April 18. The current president of Cruzeiro, Sergio Santos Rodrigues, said in a statement this Wednesday that he defended the changes that the previous Canarinha 9 shirt requires and that he has an “optimal perspective” on the performance of the talks. “Ronaldo was born here as a football player and has already shown more than once that his relationship with the club is certainly not financial.” He said. On the evening of the same day, the board of the Cruzeiro Council will be surprised. The Board of Trustees of the Cruzeiro Council questioned certain points of the agreement in a statement signed by several members and violated the confidentiality provisions by disclosing controversial details. The open agreement includes spending of about $400 million (now $80 million) diluted over the years for 90% of the shares of sports organizations that had to change their charter to become a company. Santos Rodrigues explained that the debt at the time would be the responsibility of the new administration without specifying any debt. However, the board accused the agreement that the agreement does not stipulate that the buyer bears the debt, and that the document only provides contributions of almost $10 million. The remaining $80 million announced will be generated from the club company's own revenue, according to management. They also mention that in this note published by the “ge” portal, the entire Cruzeiro player, which exceeds 100 young people, will be the property of a new joint-stock company controlled by Ronaldo. The Board of Directors never opposes Ronaldo's management or the new conditions he has requested, but considers this agreement “extremely harmful” for Cruzeiro and “excessively favorable” for the strikers of former Barcelona and Real Madrid. “We are looking for a rebalancing of all issues related to the business.” The signatory said. Ronaldo, 45, did not comment on this latest episode, in which several Cruzeiro consultants violated the principle of confidentiality affecting the purchase contract. Meanwhile, in court, the celestial team led by Uruguayan director Paulo Pezzolano started the 2022 season brilliantly. The day before, he defeated the modest Tuntum 0-3, entered the third stage of the Brazilian Cup, took second place in the Mineiro Championship, scored 7 victories, a draw and two defeats. One day before the end of the first leg of the regional tournament held in the province of Minas Gerais (South-East), Cruzeiro had only three points left behind the leader of the Almighty Atlético Mineiro, the final champion of the championship and the Brazilian Cup.
