Brazilian club lost an appeal

For the first time Neymar junior came to play in Europe in 2013. And because of this transfer, Santos demanded a big sum from Barcelona where at the end lost the legal battle last Tuesday and on top of that had to pay for expenses. In 2015 the Brazilian team demanded nearly 61.3 million (to be exact 61.295.000) euros compensation from the Spanish counterparts and sued them at the highest sports tribunal (Court of arbitration for sport). Before the signature ever happened, the 'accused club' paid a certain amount to the family company NandN and so, were not involved in any irregularities. The court costs that the South American club had to give was 20.000 Swiss francs (18.787 euros).
