Palmeiras intends to negotiate two players to complete its squad for the remainder of the season. The only exception in addition to these already planned deals would be the signing of Gabigol in this transfer window, but Alviverde's intention is to agree a pre-contract with the attacker to count on him from January 2025.


Explaining


Palmeiras has forwarded the sale of Jhon Jhon to RB Bragantino and is negotiating Garcia's loan for Portuguese football. Both were part of the plans at the beginning of the season, but will lose space with the arrivals of Giay (right-back/midfielder), Felipe Anderson (attacking midfielder) and Maurício (attacking midfielder).


Club understands that he has already ended his activities in the transfer market. Alviverde carried out the sales and hiring it aimed to do. For defense, he bet on Naves and Vitor Reis, youngsters from the base, he gained options in the middle forward with the reinforcements and the return of Dudu, and awaits a response from Gabigol for the future.

Palmeiras hit record investment for the 2024 season. Almost R$180 million has been spent, an amount four times greater than what the team spent last year.


European football is interested in Palmeiras players, but the board does not want to negotiate any more athletes — Abel even made an appeal at the last press conferences. Richard Ríos is highly valued for his performance with Colombia in the Copa América and has received inquiries from Spain, England and Italy. Left-back Vanderlan is also coveted by English football.

Palmeiras finds itself shielded in both cases by termination fines considered to be very high.

The team Abel Ferreira remains alive in all the competitions she competes in for the remainder of the season. They are one point behind leader Flamengo in the Brasileirão, qualified for the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil and face Botafogo in the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores.

And, of course, also for the three points, for our continued progress in the championship. We understand that every game is of the utmost importance . There's no next game, there's this one we're living through," he stated.


The defender then emphasized the importance of the team's mindset: "We've been doing this, working game by game, without thinking too much about the future.

Spanish midfielder Saúl experienced a weekend of intense emotions on and off the field. One of the key players in Flamengo's 2-0 victory over Juventude in the Brazilian Championship , he played the full 90 minutes despite accumulated fatigue. He had traveled to attend the birth of his third child and, despite having little rest, contributed an assist in the match played in Caxias do Sul.


" It's been crazy. Marco was born at 4:16 a.m. Luckily, everything went very well; my wife is already home with him. We spent the whole night at the hospital. At 6 a.m., we went to our room, and at 8 a.m., they sent me a message from the club telling me to try to get to training at Ninho do Urubu," Saúl reported.


STEERING WHEEL FACES DAWN IN CLEAR


Freed to spend Saturday with his family, Saúl had to wake up at dawn again to travel from Saturday to Sunday to meet the red-and-black delegation. The Spaniard had only 40 minutes of rest before taking the field .

"I went home, met my other two children, and took them to the hospital so they could meet Marco. We stayed until 7:30 or 8:00 p.m., and then we all went home. Then I went to bed, woke up at 3:00 a.m., and arrived at the airport at 5:00 a.m. I caught a flight to Campinas and then to Caxias do Sul. I went straight to the hotel and managed to rest for about 40 minutes. It was a rush. The important thing is that everything went well," he said.


SAÚL RECEIVES PRAISES FROM FILIPE LUÍS

An undisputed starter in Flamengo 's midfield, Saúl has been a mainstay of the team under Filipe Luís. The coach even stated that "we're seeing the best Saúl, perhaps the best of his career ."

The midfielder, however, prefers to keep his feet on the ground. " I don't think so. I think I've had some really good times. Mentally, I'm in a great place. My family is with me on this adventure, and I know it's not easy for my wife ," he said before concluding.

"Every time I spend with my teammates, I aim to participate, but for those who follow us, it's never easy. I've had some very memorable moments, and now I'm experiencing another very good one too. We can have bad times, it's part of the game, so we have to enjoy the good ones too," he said.
