Victory! CT Rei Pelé stays with the club after Santos FC and União reach an agreement. After nearly a decade of problems, worsened by the threat of having the CT Rei Pelé land auctioned off, the board of Santos FC reached an agreement with União to establish a new concession period for the area. After long and extensive negotiations, Peixe will remain with the right to use the property for another 20 years – extendable for another 20! The onerous concession agreement was signed on Thursday morning at the Palácio do Planalto, with the presence of the President of the Republic, Lula, the President of Santos FC, Marcelo Teixeira, and the eternal idols Clodoaldo, Serginho Chulapa, Pepe. "Undoubtedly, this was one of the greatest victories we've had in recent years. Only those who followed closely know the difficulties we faced to keep our training center," says President Marcelo Teixeira. (translated)
