SportsMemphis Depay has presented a series of demands to renew his contract with Brazilian club Corinthians for two more seasons. Accepted requests include a private box at Neo Química Arena, temporary use of the stadium for his own events, and 50% of revenue from those shows. However, the club refused his demand for a percentage of future Club World Cup prize money, even if he is no longer with the team. Depay also demanded that Corinthians restore a debt to R$77 million if they miss future repayments, up from the current R$45 million owed. He agreed to waive interest if paid in four installments over six months. Additionally, he requested a 10% increase on salary, image-rights, and marketing payments for his agent, plus monthly interest of 1.5% and a 10% fine for late payments. Corinthians plan to submit a counterproposal as negotiations continue.
