Vitoria de Guimaraes is facing a significant financial challenge, with a debt of around 75 million euros, according to Rui Rodrigues, the club's outgoing vice-president. In a meeting with the club's supporters and members at the União Desportiva Polvoreira headquarters, Rui Rodrigues revealed that the predicted debt of Vitoria de Guimaraes's SAD is between 75 and 76 million euros by June 30. However, the candidate from Lista D is confident that sales made before the deadline can reduce this number. Rui Rodrigues also spoke about the management of Diogo Sousa's departure, who is on his way to Strasbourg, in a deal that could yield up to 15 million euros. The same player could have left for half the price in January, but Rui Rodrigues highlighted the importance of patience and resilience in negotiations. Looking back, Rui Rodrigues recalled that in January they had proposals of seven million euros, but they had resilience and patience. So, it's essential to understand that negotiation power requires this patience, and in a club like Vitoria, which needs to be balanced at all times, this is even more important. The club is working to reduce the debt and improve its financial situation, and Rui Rodrigues is confident that sales made before June 30 can reduce the number of 75 million euros. But it's a tough challenge, and the club needs all the efforts to overcome it.
