Cruzeiro loans Walace to Vitória amid costly player turnover
Summary

Cruzeiro has loaned defensive midfielder Walace to Vitória until the end of the year, as he had not played for the main squad since April. Despite the loan, Cruzeiro will continue to pay 50% of Walace's wages, highlighting financial strains caused by high-profile signings that have not met expectations. Other players, such as Gabigol and Dudu, have also reportedly been costly for the club, with Gabigol currently on loan at Santos and Dudu having his contract terminated early. These patterns reflect ongoing issues within the club and potential financial ramifications moving forward.
