After Copa Win: Memphis Depay Calls for Corinthians' Board to Resign
Memphis Depay has publicly urged the entire board of Corinthians to step down. His call came just days after the Brazilian club secured the Copa do Brasil title. The forward cited deep financial and organisational problems as the reason for his demand.
Depay’s statement targeted club president Augusto Melo and the rest of the board. He argued that current leadership had failed to address ongoing issues, both on and off the pitch. The Dutch striker insisted that responsibility for Corinthians’ struggles should fall on those in charge.
His remarks followed a period of internal unrest within the club. Despite the recent cup triumph, Depay warned against celebrating too soon. Instead, he pushed for immediate changes in management to stabilise the team’s future. The demand was made in December 2024, shortly after the final whistle of the Copa do Brasil. Depay made it clear that fresh leadership was necessary to meet the club’s needs and restore stability.
The forward’s call for resignations highlights the pressure on Corinthians’ board. His intervention comes at a critical moment, with the club facing challenges beyond the pitch. The outcome of his demand could shape the direction of the team in the coming months.
