Lulinha

Chelsea promised to apply maximum of agression in a struggle for the young Brazilian miracle, Lulinha. For now he has been playing for Corinthians.

Transfers: Amaral & Heverton

Corinthians goes on refilling the vacancies left by invasion of European scouts. This time there have been signed forward Heverton from Ponte Preta and young right-wing Amaral, who moved from the deadliest rival, Palmeiras.

Douglas & Anailson

Corinthians keeps on looking for new blood. The two new candidates to put a striped jersey on are midfielders Douglas from Sao Caetano and Anailson from Atletico Goianense.

Transfers: Fabio Braz & Iran

After having sold its stars, Corinthians is trying to refill the vacuuum. Two 28-year players have been signed yesterday. Fullback Fabio Braz found himself on Vasco's bench after his failed move to Russian football, while left wing Iran has been ousted in Botafogo by Athirson.

Corinthians

Despite that the coach of Corinthians Ze Augusto has been expressed confidence from the side of club's administration, there have been confirmed rumors on negotiating with Adilson Batista, who used to play for Timão.

Transfers: Wellington

Corinthians' left wing Wellington waved goodbye to a Brazilian club and moved to Europe, where he's about to sign with German Mainz. Corinthians may now count on this position only on Gustavo Nery and Carlão.

Transfers: Eduardo Ratinho

Corinthians lost its another midfield star. Eduardo Ratinho joined Russian CSKA, where he will play on loan at least till December.

Nilmar

Brazilian forward Nilmar won a case against Corinthians on annulment of his contract with the club from Sao Paulo. Thus, Corinthians are able now to pay their 8-million debt (money received from selling Willian to Shakhtar) to Lyon for Nilmar's transfer, but are left without Nilmar himself. While the talented forward is wanted very much by Sao Paulo, Santos and Flamengo. And especially by his native Internacional, where they expect him to ideally replace Alexandre Pato.

Transfers: Corinthians

Right after having sold Willian Corinthians are already thinking of two reinforcements, both in attack. Timao is about to buy Itamar, who has been playing in Corea, and 29-years old Ailton of Mexican Pumas. The latter is famous for eliminating Corinthians from Copa Sudamericana in 2005 when he played for Mexican San Luis.

Transfers: Willian

Willian waved goodbye to Corinthians and is about to fly to Ukraine, where he will join Shakhtar. The transfer costed 19 million dollars. Now Corinthians will be able to pay their 8-million debt to Olympic Lyon for buying Nilmar.

Transfers: Willian and Eduardo Ratinho

Corinthians still owes to Olympic Lyon 8 million euros for the scandalous transfer of Nilmar. Brazilians need to find the money urgently, otherwise FIFA threatens to deduct the points in the national championship, which will automatically lead to descending. As a salvation option for Corinthinas the transfers of two club's best young players - Willian and Eduardo Ratinho - to the French club is being studied these days.

Transfers: Zelão and Wellington

President of Corinthians Rubens Gomes announced that his club turned down the 2-million offer to buy "zagueiro" Zelão. The central defenseman, the part of rights to whom belongs to his previous club Bragantina, will stay in "Timão"...

...unlike left wing Wellington, who has been demanded by Spanish Valladolid, and whom the chiefs of Corinthians are ready to let go.

Brasileirão: Corinthians-Flamengo

Soon upon having signed with Flamengo, wonder-playmaker Roger took part in a clash against his former club. He did it well: right after entering the game whem Fla was losing 0:2 (Clodoaldo and Dinelson), he initiated an attack that ended up with a goal of Souza.
