The CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation) established that September 11th is the last day for teams to sign new players for the season.
Atlético-MG agreed until the end of 2029 with midfielder Fred, who defended the Brazilian team in the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, always under the command of coach Tite.
Created from the academy, Fred became a professional at Internacional. Then he stood out in Europe. From Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine), where he spent five seasons, he went to Manchester United (from 2018 to 2023) and, in the last three years, played for Turkish Fenerbahce.
At 33 years old, the midfielder will wear the number 7 shirt for Atlético, which despite having very remote chances of winning the Brazilian Championship (it is 8th with 32 points, 16 behind leader Palmeiras), is in contention in the Copa do Brasil and the Copa Sudamericana.
MORE FOREIGNERS
Internacional, Vasco and Chapecoense, who are basically fighting during the season to avoid going to the second division of the Brazilian Championship, also announced new faces for the squad.
Inter (16th with 24 points) brought attacking midfielder Niclas Eliasson on a one-year loan from AEK. Before the Greek team, the 30-year-old played for modest teams in Europe such as the Swedish Falkenberg, AIK and IFK, Bristol City (England) and Nimes (France).
"It's always been a dream to play in Brazil," said Eliasson, in Portuguese. He is the son of a Brazilian woman and a Swedish man.
Vasco, second to last in the Brazilian Championship, with 22 points, and classified for the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil, announced Argentine midfielder Santiago Sosa, who was at Racing, with a contract until the end of 2029.
At 27 years old, the midfielder started at River Plate and later played for Atlanta United (USA).
Chapecoense, bottom of the championship with 11 points, signed Colombian midfielder Dylan Borrero, 24, from América de Cali. The contract runs until the end of 2027.
Borrero already knows Brazilian football. From 2020 to 2022 he played for Atlético-MG and, in 2025, he played for Fortaleza. Now he's trying to make the Santa Catarina team win again (it's been 21 consecutive games that the team hasn't won).
Grêmio was one of the clubs that strengthened the most in this transfer window with six athletes: Croatian midfielder Filip Krovinovic, right-back Diego Caito, Cape Verdean attacking midfielder Jovane Cabral, striker Matheus Nascimento, defender Wallace and midfielder Danilo Barbosa.
