On Monday, Boavista deposited 55 thousand euros into the account of the club's insolvent creditors, under penalty of closing its activity, continuing to work on its recovery, confirmed the checkered president, Rui Garrido Pereira. “[O primeiro pagamento] It was completed within the stipulated deadline, with the collaboration of many Boavista residents, to whom I must thank. This made it possible to fulfill that obligation we had with the court», said the director, speaking to the Lusa agency. The amount covered Boavista's expenses for the month of December and the first tranche to be paid to creditors, who will have to receive a further 96 thousand euros between January, February and March. Payment must always be made by the 10th of each month. In case of non-compliance, the city club Invicta, which was last national champion in the 2000/01 season, could see its activity terminated by Maria Claisse Barros. Rui Garrido Pereira states that «he continues to fight a battle to have a living Boavista». «We know that we have obligations to fulfill and that is our duty at all times. Boavista is always on the edge. We are insolvent and we have to find solutions to solve the problems.” On Thursday, Boavista launched a public fundraising campaign, which helped pay the first tranche in a timely manner. «At this moment, we want to thank the support and interest of many Boavista residents and beyond. Several people with no direct connection to the club were concerned and helped. We want more participation from society, as a way of demonstrating strength and will for Boavista to overcome this situation», concluded Rui Garrido Pereira.
