Chapecoense need your help to survive

The Brazilians are facing an uncertain future due to financial pressure stemming from the air disaster that left 19 of their players as well as their entire coaching staff dead

Chapecoense have been “overwhelmed” by the support received since last Monday’s air disaster which claimed the lives of 19 players, their entire coaching staff and 71 people in total. But even in such close proximity to disaster, Chape need to plan for the future. Their sporting priorities at this stage are to conclude this Brasileirao season - which still has one round to go - and build a team for next year.
