It seems as if Paulinho won’t be moving back home to Brazil after Corinthians ended their interest in the Tottenham midfielder.
The 26 year old has been the centre of constant speculation after receiving next to no playing time in the English Premier League this season.
Corinthians seemed to be the club at the front of the queue but sporting director Roberto Ximenes has ended any hopes the fans had of seeing the player next season.
“Paulinho is an athlete who will always be well received here in Corinthians. In its history, its character and talent. But today, it is not yet time. When there is a possibility in the future we will try to get him back. “
