Earnie Stewart and PSV managed to focus in particular on the European transfer market last transfer summer, in the sense that the club did business with European clubs.
However, the arrows were also aimed at South America. On the Brazilian transfer market. Between all the European transfer violence, Stewart and Brands tried to get a foothold at both Corinthians, the club of Memphis Depay, and at another club from São Paulo, São Paulo FC.
Stewart and Brands wanted to do business with Corinthians to bring the potential top player Bidon to PSV, but it soon became clear that Corinthians, a club with major financial problems and more than 400 million euros in debt, wanted to get the most out for the young international of Young Brazil. Corinthians wanted to receive no less than 15 million euros for Bidon, where, according to Brazilian sources, PSV wanted to pay a maximum of 10 million euros.
The negotiations between the two clubs were soon demolished. In the meantime, PSV also managed to make contact with another Brazilian club from São Paulo, called São Paulo FC. At São Paulo FC, Brazilian talent Carmo is under contract. For weeks it seemed that PSV would continue for Carmo, but suddenly and out of nowhere São Paulo FC decided to block the deal. The reason could just be the concrete interest of the Russian club CSKA Moscow.
Sao Paulo FC
Clubs from Russia usually pay more for players than clubs from the European countries. Henrique Carmo will at least make the step to Russia. ESPN reports that. The payment channel reports that the Brazilian attacker makes the switch from São Paulo FC to CSKA Moscow.
Carmo is seen in Brazil as one of the greatest attacking talents. His development caused PSV’s Conrete interest, which offered in concrete terms on Carmo. With São Paulo FC, a rental construction was created where all parties could agree. Things went out of nothing because the Brazilian club suddenly pulled the plug out of the negotiations.
Subsequently, Everton, Shakhtar Donetsk and CSKA Moscow also reported in São Paulo, but the Russians are now going there with the eighteen -year -old Carmo. According to ESPN, CSKA pays an amount of approximately 7 million euros, including bonuses, where PSV even corresponded a sum of eight million euros to São Paulo FC.
Thus a special state of affairs around this young top talent, which passes by PSV but makes a transfer to a country that can still be considered very controversial. Russian clubs seem to get a little more on the ground on the international transfer market step by step.
