Former CBF president Ricardo Teixeira received R$ 705 from the partners of Ailanto Marketing, a company accused of embezzling public funds from the national team's friendly match against Portugal in 2008. This is shown in previously unpublished documents in the hands of the Federal District Public Prosecutor's Office, to which Folha had access.

The story begins in July 2008. On the 2nd of that month, Sandro Rossell, the current president of Barcelona and a friend of Teixeira, took control of Ailanto along with Vanessa Precht. Prosecutors suspect that the company is a front, set up solely to organize the game.

Around the same time, the Barcelona director made two money transfers to Teixeira – on June 20th and July 4th. These were registered as loans totaling R$ 500. According to Rossell's 2011 income tax return, the money was not repaid at least until 2010.

Shortly after the transfer to Teixeira, Ailanto was hired, without bidding, by the district government to organize the national team's friendly match at the end of that year. For this, it used R$ 9 million in resources from the Federal District.

The following year, in March, Ailanto's other partner, Vanessa Precht, signed a lease agreement for a farm belonging to Teixeira. He was to receive R$ 600.

New documents obtained by Folha - including seven checks made out to Teixeira in her name - show how part of the money was paid.
