00:05Four-time world champion and idol of Rio de Janeiro clubs,
00:07The former player got involved in a problem during the World Cup.
00:11where he has been a commentator for KZTV.
00:14The fourth civil court of Barra da Tijuca, here in Rio de Janeiro,
00:17decided to block all payments to the former player.
00:21Regarding the commentary work he has been doing during the World Cup in the United States.
00:25The freeze is due to a debt that is about two decades old.
00:30and which today is worth around 32.4 million reais.
00:35and that needs to be paid off by the former player.
00:37The root of the problem lies in a process that, as mentioned here before,

00:55The former player reportedly signed a debt acknowledgment agreement.
00:58around one and a half million reais,
01:01but which, according to the company, was never fulfilled.
01:04Due to the accrual of interest and inflation adjustments since then,
01:07The value would have jumped to no less than 32.4 million reais.
01:11The court decision forced KZTV to show the court.
