Argentinean agent gave his version on the whole controversy.
The Argentinean agent Gustavo Arribas gave his version exclusively on the involvement with Kia Joorabchian, on Thursday.
"First of all, I don't know why they link my name to the Kia's one. He is not my partner and we have never had jointly businesses. When he came to Corinthians, at that time of MSI, I helped to buy Carlitos Tevez from Boca Juniors. I am a Fifa agent and, at that time, I didn't get office in Brazil, just in Argentina."
"By the way, I don't want my name linked to the Kia's one. He had involvement with the Brazilian Justice. I don't see how I can take any advantage from that situation."
"Secondly, Kia has affirmed I stole Corinthians in Sebastian Domingues' departure in 2007. That's not true. The club had sold Tevez and Mascherano to foreign squad and forgot Sebá. The then coach was Emerson Leão, who got rid of the player and left him in the club training apart for six months. Sebá himself, upset, got his liberation from the management. Could you explain me how I stole Corinthians? The player was even said and blamed me. He alleged I defended more the club than him."
"Recently, I've helped Thiago Heleno to change Cruzeiro for Corinthians. If I had stolen the club, nobody would have made business with me", he concluded. Gustavo Arribas, for his turn, confirmed he's lent attacker William José to São Paulo. The player's federative rights belong to Deportivo Maldonado, of Uruguay. And I have said! *
