Part 4/7:
Internacional's management has acknowledged a projected loss of R$90 million due to these adverse factors. The repair expenses of Beira-Rio, combined with a decline in matchday revenues, have hit the club hard. While their investments in player acquisitions were meant to bolster performance and potentially secure titles, the financial outputs are not matching initial investments.
The situation is made worse by rising loan amounts—close to R$100 million—that the club has had to secure to cover short-term operations. This reliance on borrowing not only raises immediate concerns about liquidity but also poses long-term threats, with looming interest payments potentially spiraling into an insurmountable debt situation.
