Palmeiras football manager Cícero Souza insists that the club have a limit regarding payments to new signings when asked about accepting defeat in the pursuit of Thiago Mendes.

Cícero Souza also confirmed that the club will continue without paying astronomical salaries to reinforcements because they have to obey certain limits. He told Rádio Jovem Pan: “Thiago is a modern player and we were really interested, but there are some limits we should obey, not only in relation to Thiago Mendes.”

Thiago Mendes eventually signed for Palmeiras’ rivals São Paulo for a reported salary of €11,500 per-week, and is considered to be someone with a bright future ahead.
