According to reports from Brazil last week, Corinthians had not yet received the money from the sale of Murillo to Nottingham Forest.
It was alleged that the Tricky Trees had yet to pay the first instalment of €5 million that was due for the summer signing.
We now see a story from Bruno Andrade claiming that Nottingham Forest had settled their debt, even though that had been questioned at the time.
It’s claimed that the Reds delayed the payment for a week, but sorted the issue on Monday.
According to Bruno Andrade, the total amount of the deal is of €13m plus €2m in bonuses.
Now that Nottingham Forest paid the first instalment, they have a new one of €4m to be paid in March 2024 and another one of €4m due in December 2024. There are no details on the performance bonuses for the other €2m.
Since the summer transfer, Murillo took a while to get his debut for the Reds, but ended up being a starter in their last three Premier League matches. He recently claimed to be very happy at the club.
