The financial dispute surrounding Juan Bezerra’s transfer to Zamalek has escalated after his former club, Oleksandriya, moved to demand overdue payments from the deal, bringing back an issue that began several months ago and has yet to be fully resolved.

According to media reports, Oleksandriya is preparing to file an official complaint against Zamalek over unpaid transfer fees estimated at around $800,000. The Ukrainian club is also seeking additional bonus payments linked to Bezerra’s appearances and contributions for Zamalek.

Letter, No Payment

The issue did not begin recently. In July, Oleksandriya revealed that part of the money related to Bezerra’s transfer had not reached the club.

At the time, Oleksandriya said it had received a letter from Zamalek confirming that a payment had been transferred. However, despite receiving the transfer notice, the money did not arrive in the club’s account.

As time passed without the outstanding amount being received, the case remained open between the two clubs, with Oleksandriya waiting for Zamalek to complete its financial obligations under the transfer agreement.

The latest developments suggest that the situation has now become more serious, as Bezerra’s former club continues to demand payment without reaching a final settlement with Zamalek.

Complaint and $800,000

According to the latest reports, Oleksandriya is demanding around $800,000 in outstanding payments, while the total amount could increase because of additional bonuses included in the transfer agreement.

Transfer deals can include clauses giving a player's former club extra payments when certain appearance or performance targets are reached. As a result, Oleksandriya's final financial claim could increase depending on the exact terms of Bezerra's deal.

With the payment still delayed, Oleksandriya has decided to take more formal steps to recover the money after the issue had previously remained at the stage of communication between the two clubs.

Zamalek still has the opportunity to settle the dispute directly with Bezerra's former club by paying or agreeing on a solution for the outstanding amounts before the case develops into further formal action.

The coming period is expected to reveal Zamalek's response to Oleksandriya's demands and whether the Egyptian club can close the financial file or face an official complaint over the transfer fee and related bonuses.

What began as a completed football transfer has therefore developed into an ongoing financial dispute, starting with a transfer notice that was not followed by the arrival of the money and now reaching claims worth around $800,000, with further payments potentially added.
