Inter had funds blocked by the courts due to a financial dispute related to the signing of Carlos Palácios.
The claim is being made by a businessman who participated in the negotiation and involves around R$ 640,000, an amount that is still accruing interest, monetary correction, legal costs, and attorney fees until it is settled.
The information was initially published by ESPN Brasil. The case is being processed in the Civil Court of the Central Forum of Porto Alegre and has been ongoing since at least April 2025.
The debt originated from Palácios’s transfer from Unión Española to Inter in 2021. At the time, businessman Pablo Leclerc Fluxa acted as an intermediary and it was agreed that he would be paid US$ 154,000, divided into four installments of US$ 38,500 each.
According to the representative, the club made only two of these payments. Inter’s management is trying to resolve the situation after the end of the judiciary’s recess, which is scheduled to conclude on January 20.
Inter had acquired Palácios’s economic rights for US$ 3 million. The Chilean forward spent one season at Beira-Rio, played 35 matches, provided three assists, and did not score any goals before being transferred to Vasco.
