VALENTIN FURLANSÃO PAULO, SP (UOL/FOLHAPRESS) - São Paulo reached a verbal agreement with Jonathan Calleri and forwarded the striker's contract renewal. The Argentine agreed to make his salary request more flexible to open up the talks and remain at the club.

All that remains is to exchange documents to sign the new bond, which will be valid until December 2028.

The contract will follow the "2+1" model. There will be an automatic renewal clause until the end of 2029, as long as Calleri plays for at least 45 minutes in 60% of São Paulo's matches during the 2028 season.

The renewal was unlocked after the attacker himself reduced his financial requirements. Before that, Calleri had rejected a proposal presented during Rui Costa's management and considered a second offer, already formulated by the interim board, insufficient.

Even with two pre-contract proposals from abroad, the Argentine prioritized staying at Morumbis and reached a common denominator with the board.

São Paulo's top scorer this season, with 12 goals, Calleri only had a contract until the end of this year and was already free to sign a pre-contract with any club outside Brazil. Now, the tendency is for the renewal to be made official in the next few days.
